Goodbye, Old Girl

(Come on, the team needs you, let's not waste any more time)
(Alright, but I want to, I want to leave a note for my wife first)

Goodbye, old girl
My old girl
When you awaken, I'll be gone
Can't tell you where I go
It isn't fair, I know
But trust in me and carry on

Goodbye, old friend
My old friend
There's something I must let you know
I haven't said it much
I guess I've lost my touch
But, my old girl, I love you so

Now I know it hasn't all been rosy
We've had squabbling days where tears were brought about
But in a moment or two, we would bill and coo
And never even knew what we fought about

And now your Joe has to go
But he'll come back to you again
So sleep your sleep, old girl
Our love will keep, old girl, 'til then

We'll call you Hardy, Joe Hardy, you'll be 22 years old
They'll put a new wing on that baseball museum at Cooperstown
Dedicated to you: The Hardy's Shrine (haha)
Alright, let's go, the cab's waiting
Hey! Did you? (Haha)
I-I can't believe it! Why? It's incredible!

And though your Joe has to go
He may come back to you again
So sleep your sleep, old girl
Our love will keep, old girl, 'til then

Goodbye, old girl
My old girl
Goodbye!
