Bon Voyage
You think you’re something’ special,
cause you’re Arizona bound!
You think we’re really gonna feel it,
when you’re no longer 'round!
You prob’ly think that we’ll feel sad,
and some of us will cry,
as we shake your hand or kiss you,
and exchange that last “good-bye!
You prob’ly think we wish you luck,
in everything you do!
That you will be successfull,
as you start your life anew.
You prob’ly feel we’ll miss you,
and be sorry that you’re gone.
That we prob’ly won’t forget you,
as time goes movin’ on!
No doubt you feel we like you,
and enjoy your wit and charm,
your pleasing personality,
your smile, so sweet and warm!
You're thinkin' we're all hoping,
you'll enjoy the sights you see.
That you won't get lost along the way,
and that your trip is trouble free.
Well if you think we think those thoughts,
and we sincerely hope you might,
then we really hate to say it,
but, by god, this time you're right!
So when you reach you're destination,
and while you bide your time,
freeloading at you daughters,
why not, drop us a line?
