Bright lights are dimmer Bank roll is slimmer Looks like I'm down and done Bye bye I gotta run Bye bye So long, so long Big time So long, so long Big time I made it fine I made it fast That ain't the sign It has to last Had it made for a while In a highfalutin style So long, so long Big time Big dough, bright lights Big time I won't pretend I am Glad its ended It was fun Now its done But I'll never sing A loser's song So long big time I gotta run So long Tell the chicks And tell all the cronies Lost it all on the cards And the ponies Tell the friends And fair-weather phonies Living high Tell 'em, "Bye" And tell 'em why Lady Luck just gave me the brush off So I'll rush off And try a new routine I'm a guy who rolls with the punches And my hunch is Its time to quit the scene Tell the kids And tell all the cookies Tell the babes And tell all the bookies That I knew That I'm through And when you do Buy a few beers for me Tell 'em no tears for me So long, so long Big time Big dough, bright lights Big time Ain't gonna grieve 'Cause I must be leaving It was funNow its done But I'll never sing A loser's song So long big time I gotta run So long
