People say I'm the life of the party'Cause I tell a joke or two.Although I might be laughing loud and hearty,Deep inside I'm blue.So take agood look at my face.You know my smile looks out of place.If you look closer, it's easy to traceThe tracks of my tears.

I don't like youBut I love you.See that I'm alwaysThinking of you.Oh, oh, oh,You treat me badly;I love you madly.You've really got a hold on me.You've really got a hold on me, baby.

My girl has gone, and said goodbye.Don't you cry, hold your head up high.Don't give up, give love one more try,'Cause there's a right girl for every guy.

Now if there's a smile on my face,It's only there tryin' to fool the public,But when it comes down to foolin' you;Now honey, that's quite a different subject.But don't let my glad expressionGive you the wrong impression.Really I'm sad.I'm sadder than sad.You're gone and I'm hurtin' so bad.Like a clown I pretend to be glad.

Maybe you want to give me kisses sweet,But only for one night with no repeat.Maybe you'd go away and never call,And a taste of honey is worse than none at all (oh little girl)Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part. (I do believe that)That would only break my heart.Oh, but if you feel like loving me,If you got the notion,I second that emotion.

I don't care what they think of me,And I don't care what they say.I don't care what they think if you're leavin'.I'm gonna beg you to stay.I don't care if they start to avoid me.I don't care what they do.I don't care about anything elseBut bein' with you,Bein' with you.

Ooo la la la laI did you wrong; my heart went out to play.But in the game I lost you.What a price to pay, hey I'm crying.Ooo baby baby.Ooo baby baby.

No don't you know my daddy told me,Told me right from the startAbout youth.He said no matter how old a man is,He's partly a boy in his heart.Yeah, and that's the truth.

Just because you've become a young man now,There's still some things that you don't understand now.Before you ask some girl for her hand now,Keep your freedom for as long as you can now.My mama told me...'you better shop around'(Shop, shop around) a-whoa-yeahYou better (uh-huh) shop around.

What's so good about goodbye?All it does is make you cry.Well, if leaving causes grieving,And depart can break you heart,Tell me (what's so good about it)I could have done without it.What's so good about goodbye?
