American Old Time Song Lyrics: 31 Good Bye, Old Party, Good Bye

Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 31

Good-Bye, Old Party, Good-Bye.
By C. S. White.
Campaign Song of "The People's Party of America."

It was no more than a year ago, good-bye, old party, good-bye:
That I was in love with my party so, good-bye, old party, good-bye;
To hear aught else I never would go, good-bye, old party, good-bye;
Like all the rest I made a great blow, good-bye, old party, good-bye.

Chorus.
Bye, party, bye, lo; bye, party, bye. lo;
Bye, party, bye, lo; good-bye, old party, good-bye.

I was often scourged with the party lash, good-bye, old party, good-bye;
The bosses laid on with demands for cash, good-bye, old party, good-bye;
To do aught else I deemed it rash, good-bye, old party, good-bye;
So I had to take it or lose my hash, good-bye, old party, good-bye. -Chorus.

I was raised up in the kind of school, good-bye, old party, good-bye;
That taught to bow to money rule, good-bye, old party, good-bye;
And it made of me a "Kansas Fool." good-bye, old party, good-bye;
When they found I was a willing tool, good-bye, old party, good-bye.-Chorus.

The old party is on the downward track, good-bye. old party, good-bye;
Picking his teeth with a tariff tack, good-bye, old party, good-bye;
With a placard pinned upon its back, good-bye, old party, good-bye;
That plainly states, "I will never come back, good-bye, old party, good-bye."
Chorus.
