Goin' Away Party

(Cindy Walker)



I'm throwin' a goin' away party

A party for a friend of mine

So put me somewhere off in a corner

With a glass and bottle of your party wine.



Don't worry it won't be a loud party

I feel too low to get too high

It's just a sad goin' away party

For a dream I'm telling goodbye.



I'm throwin' a goin' away party

A party for a friend of mine

Nobody's coming but a heartache

And some tears will drop in now, most anythime.



Don't worry it won't be a loud party

Dreams don't make noise when they die

And Joe, since it's a goin' away party

Go away and let me cry.



And Joe, since it's a goin' away party

Go away and let me cry...
