Michelle Shocked - Hello Hopeville Lyrics
Down at the Cold War InstituteThey were signing new recruitsHe went down to the station in his three piece suitNow she had cried for him to stayBut there was nothing more to sayAs she was waving a white kerchief as the train pulled awaySinging bye, bye baby boy I hope they treat you well, well, wellIt was another situation as the train left the stationIt was hello Hopeville I need a vacationNow the world's been cruelThis time she really let me downI thought I'd go back to schoolYeak, try to clean up this townAnd now it's hello HopevilleI know you're gonna treat me well, well, wellWell, well, wellGet gone!Well, well, well, looky here, looky hereWell, well, well, what have we got hereGot me a runaway kidGot no money never didGot the sense to come in out of the rainUh, he was waitin' for a station just like some people wait for a trainAnd I'm singing bye, bye baby boy I hope they treat you well, well, wellWell, well, wellWell, well, wellWell, well, well
