Goin' Away Party
Farewell Dreams: Merle Haggard's Goin' Away Party
Lyrics
I'm throwin' a goin' away party
I am organizing a farewell celebration
A party for a dream of mine
Celebrating the departure of a cherished dream
So put me somewhere off in a corner
Place me in a secluded spot
With a glass and bottle of your party wine
Provide me with a glass and bottle of your special party wine
Don't worry it won't be a loud party
Assure it won't be a noisy gathering
I feel too low to get too high
My spirits are too low to reach great heights
It's just a sad goin' away party
This is a melancholic farewell party
For a dream I'm telling goodbye
Bidding farewell to a dream
I'm throwin' a goin' away party
Reiterating the organization of a farewell event
A party for a dream of mine
Marking the departure of a significant dream
Nobody's coming but a heartache
No one is attending except for heartache
And some tears will drop in now most anytime
Tears may fall at any moment
Don't worry it won't be a loud party
Emphasizing the quiet nature of the party
Dreams don't make noise when they die
Highlighting the silent demise of dreams
And so since it's a goin' away party
Given it's a farewell party, please leave and let me grieve
Go away and let me cry
Expressing the sadness of saying goodbye to a dream
Hey, it's just a sad goin' away party
Reiterating that it's a sorrowful farewell celebration
For a dream I'm tellin' goodbye, goodbye
Bidding final farewell to the dream
