Gather round me buddies,
Hold your glasses high,
And drink to a fool, a crazy fool who told his baby goodbye

Too late he found out he loves her,
So much he wants to die
But drink to a fool, a crazy fool who told his baby goodbye

He needs her, he needs her so
He wonders why he let her go-oo-oo

She's found a new love, buddy,
He's a lucky guy,
So drink to the fool, 'cause I'm that fool who told his baby goodbye

(instrumental break)

He needs her, he needs her so
He wonders why he let her go-oo-oo

She's found a new love, buddy,
He's a lucky guy,
So drink to the fool, 'cause I'm that fool who told my baby goodbye
My baby goodbye,
Who told my baby, who told my baby
