Gather round me buddies hold your glasses high

And drink to the fool the crazy fool who told his baby goodbye

Too late he finds he loves her so much he wants to die

Drink to the fool the crazy fool that told his baby goodbye

Now he needs her Lord he needs her so and he wonders why he let her go

She found a new love buddy he's a lucky guy

So drink to the fool the crazy fool that told his baby goodbye

That told his baby goodbye
