Good Bye Broadway, Hello France lyrics
Good Bye Broadway, Hello France lyrics
Good-bye New York town, good-bye Miss Liberty,
Your light of freedom will guide us across the sea,
Ev'ry soldier's sweetheart bidding good-bye,
Ev'ry soldier's mother drying her eye.
Cheer up we'll soon be there, Singing this Yankee air:
Chorus:
Good-bye Broadway, Hello France,
We're ten million strong,
Good-bye sweethearts wives and mothers,
It won't take us long.
Don't you worry while we're there,
It's for you we're fighting too,
So Good-bye Broadway, Hello France,
We're going to square our debt to you.
Vive Pershing is the cry across the sea.
We're united in this fight for liberty.
France sent us a soldier, brave Lafayette
Whose deeds and fame we cannot forget.
Now that we have the chance
We'll pay our debt to France.
Chorus:
Good-bye Broadway, Hello France,
We're ten million strong,
Good-bye sweethearts wives and mothers,
It won't take us long.
Don't you worry while we're there,
It's for you we're fighting too,
So Good-bye Broadway, Hello France,
We're going to square our debt to you.
