Good-bye Jimmy Good-bye

By Kathy Linden

Linden scored two hits on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 late in the 1950s. The first was “Billy”, a song originally written in 1911; it hit #7 in 1958. The second was “Goodbye Jimmy, Goodbye”, which rose to #11 in 1959.

Lyrics

Goodbye, Jimmy goodbye  *Goodbye, Jimmy, goodbye Goodbye, Jimmy, goodbye I’ll see you again but I don’t know when Goodbye, Jimmy, goodbye
Wind is a-blowing, rain starts to fall Train is a-tooting its long, lonesome call Wheels are clicking their way down the track Counting the days till he’s coming back(*)
When he has traveled the land and the sea He’ll stop his wandering and come home to me Give me a kiss for each tear and each sigh Till then my Jimmy, my Jimmy, goodbye(*)
再見了!吉米,再見   再見了!吉米,再見 再見了!吉米,再見 我會再見到你,但不知道什麼時候 再見了!吉米,再見
風在吹著,雨開始下了 火車嘟嘟叫著長遠而寂寞的呼喚 車輪在鐵軌上轉動著 數著他將歸來的日子
當他遊遍陸地和海洋 他將不再流浪,回到家鄉到我身邊 給我一個吻,為每一顆眼淚和每一聲嘆息 然後,我的吉米,再見了!
