Farewell Party

When the last breath of life is gone from my body
 And my lips are as cold as the sea
 When my friends gather 'round for my farewell party
 Won't you pretend you love me?
 There will be flowers from those who cry when I go
 And leave you in this old world alone
 I know you'll have fun at my farewell party
 I know you'll be glad when I'm gone
 ♪
 Don't be mad at me for wanting to keep you
 'Til my life on this old world is through
 You'll be free at the end of my farewell party
 But I'll go away loving you
 There will be flowers from those who cry when I go
 And leave you in this old world alone
 I know you'll have fun at my farewell party
 I know you'll be glad when I'm gone
 Yes, I know you'll be glad when I'm gone
