Lyrics
Goodbye My Child
Words and Music by Dave Withers © 2021
Yes it’s alright
Have a good fight
Watch your step
Make the world a better place
For you and I
Goodbye my child
It’s for your family
It’s for your country
It’s for peace
It’s for freedom and democracy
Goodbye my child
And the leaders of all lands
Rule with visionary plans
It’s proven time and time again
Goodbye my child
They’ll salute you
Decorate you
Shake your hands
And through the streets
They will parade you
Goodbye my child
And the leaders of all lands
Rule with just and thoughtful plans
It’s proven time and time again
Goodbye my child
Yes it’s alright
Have a good fight
Watch your step
Make the world a better place
For you and I
Goodbye my child
