Artist/Band: Ray Anthony
Lyrics for Song: Toot, Toot, Tootsie, Goodbye
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Ray Anthony



Toot, toot, Tootsie, good-bye!


Toot, toot, Tootsie, don't cry


The choo choo train that takes me


Away from you no words can tell how sad it makes me


Kiss me, Tootsie, and then


Do it over again, watch for the mail, I'll never fail


If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail


Toot, toot, Tootsie don't cry


Toot, toot, Tootsie, good-bye





Toot, toot, Tootsie, good-bye!


Toot, toot, Tootsie, don't cry


The choo choo train that takes me


Away from you no words can tell how sad it makes me


Kiss me, Tootsie, and then


Do it over again, watch for the mail, I'll never fail


If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail


Toot, toot, Tootsie don't cry


Toot, toot, Tootsie, good-bye


Toot, Toot, Tootsie, Goodbye

Ray Anthony's 1954 recording of 'Toot, Toot, Tootsie, Goodbye' stands as a definitive example of the uptempo swing style that defined the mid-1950s. The track features the band's signature 'hot' trumpet section, led by Ray Anthony himself, driving a relentless, danceable rhythm that became a staple of big band repertoire. While the song's lyrics tell a brief, humorous story of a man fleeing a woman, the musical arrangement focuses on intricate interplay between the brass and rhythm sections, showcasing the technical prowess of the era's top session musicians. This recording helped cement Ray Anthony's status as a leading figure in the swing revival and remains a favorite for jazz enthusiasts and swing dancers alike, capturing the infectious energy of post-war American popular music.
