Pogues – Sayonara Lyrics

New Age

OK, it's time for sayonara
Come on, Yankee break my heart
There's nothing left for us to say now
Even the best friends gotta part

I walked into the nearest bar
I sat and gazed across the sea
I wandered drunk on the beach
The waves just dripping misery

She had a red, red scarf around her neck
Her eyes were green and her hair was black
She had a red, red scarf around her neck
Her eyes were green and her hair was black

Ooh, she gave me Mekong Whiskey
Ooh, she gave me Hong Kong Flu
Ooh, she gave me Mekong Whiskey
Put me on a breeze to Katmandu

I got new papers in a bordello
With some luckies and my ID
My heart was pounding like a hammer
Thai, Thai, Thai, Thai, Thai, I am free

She kissed me softly on the lips
She took my hand without a sound
This was our happy ever after
So motherfucker kiss the ground

She had a red, red scarf around her neck
Her eyes were green and her hair was black
She had a red, red scarf around her neck
Her eyes were green and her hair was black

Ooh, she gave me Mekong Whiskey
Ooh, she gave me Hong Kong Flu
Ooh, she gave me Mekong Whiskey
Put me on a breeze to Katmandu

Ooh, she gave me Mekong Whiskey
Ooh, she gave me Hong Kong Flu
Ooh, she gave me Mekong Whiskey
Put me on a breeze to Katmandu
Put me on a breeze to Katmandu
Put me on a breeze to Katmandu

Ain't it very nice?
Yeah, we all have slime lead out
And now Mr. Ranken on the drum kit
Is gonna sing the lead vocal on "Cotton Fields"
