Lyrics

I made a Hat from paper C-G

I glued some glitter on it C-G

I glued some curly noodles C-G

With tape to make them stay C-G

But I let David wear it C-G

He left it on the chair C-G

Where Marsha sat down on it C-G

Now it doesn’t look the same. C-G-C

 

Goodbye Hat, it’s time to go F-C-F-C

It’s sad to say Goodbye I know Dm-G

Goodbye Hat, I love you F-C-F-C

But now I’ve got some other things to do Dm-G-C

 

My Mom, she gets me dressed

She gets me stuff to eat

She takes me to the place

Where I stay all day

She has to go to work

I know she’s sad to leave me

Because we love each other

And she’d rather stay and play

 

Goodbye Mom, it’s time to go

It’s sad to say Goodbye I know

Goodby Mom, I love you

But now I’ve got some other things to do

 

When something new begins

There’s a middle, and an end

It’s sad when it ends

But that’s the way things are

With hats or with Moms

With ice cream or with friends

So I don’t say Goodbye

I say “Au Revoir”

 

Au Revoir, it’s time to go

It’s sad to say Goodbye I know

Au Revoir Mom, I love you

But now we’ve got some other things to do

Wave Goodbye Mom, I love you

Cause now I’ve got some other things to do.
