Say good-by er howdy-do -- What's the odds betwixt the two? Comin' -- goin', ev'ry day -- Best friends first to go away -- Grasp of hands you'd ruther hold Than their weight in solid gold Slips their grip while greetin' you. -- Say good-by er howdy-do!
Howdy-do, and then, good-by -- Mixes jes' like laugh and cry; Deaths and births, and worst and best, Tangled their contrariest; Ev'ry jinglin' weddin'-bell Skeerin' up some funer'l knell. -- Here's my song, and there's your sigh. -- Howdy-do, and then, good-by!
Say good-by er howdy-do -- Jes' the same to me and you; 'Taint worth while to make no fuss, 'Cause the job's put up on us! Some One's runnin' this concern That's got nothin' else to learn: Ef _He's_ willin', we'll pull through -- Say good-by er howdy-do!
