Lyrics Ray Stevens – I’m Kissing You Goodbye

Well, the first time we met dear, you flashed that come on smile
Your steamy eyed glances nearly drove me wild
So we drove out to the country and parked beneath the stars
When you fogged up my windshield and set my soul afire

Well, you moved into my place that very same night
I was so happy it was love at first sight

But one day I came home early the very next week
Found a man in my closet said he’s playing hide and seek
Now I may be stupid but I’ll never understand
Why he was playing hide and seek with all his clothes in his hand

So get your feet off of my table get shoes from under my bed
Get your hat off of my hat rack, put it on your head
Get your coat out of my closet, put it on your back
Get your Ferlin Husky records, darlin’, it’s time for you to pack

Get your arms from around me — it ain’t no use to try
Get your tongue out of my mouth cause I’m kissing you goodbye

Singers
Get your tongue… Ray
Outta my mouth — and wipe off that silly grin
Singers
Get your tongue… Ray
Outta my mouth — ain’t no telling where it’s been
Singers
Get your tongue… Ray
Outta my mouth — don’t try that again
Singers
Get your tongue… Ray
Outta my mouth…
Singers
Get your tongue… Ray

Lets just say adios with a kiss and a sigh
Get your tongue outta my mouth cause I’m kissing you goodbye

Well the flame has flickered and the passion has cooled
I hate to lose you darling but I won’t be fooled
‘Cause you just can’t be true dear, you’re spreading it around
You’ve shattered all that mattered, gonna have to put you down

Get your dog outta my dog house, your cat outta my tree
Get your bird outta my bird cage, I’m settin’ you free
Get your toothbrush outta ma bathroom, your stockins off my line
Get your curlers off offa dresser, darlin’, you ain’t no friend of mine

Get your arms from around me — I won’t believe your lies
Get your tongue outta my mouth, ’cause I’m kissin’ you goodbye

Singers
Get your tongue… Ray
Outta my mouth — and wipe off that silly grin
Singers
Get your tongue… Ray
Outta my mouth — ain’t no telling where it’s been
Singers
Get your tongue… Ray
Outta my mouth — don’t try that again
Singers
Get your tongue… Ray
Outta my mouth…
Singers
Get your tongue… Ray
Git yer tongue outta my mouf!

Lets just say adios with a kiss and a sigh
Get your tongue outta of my mouth, ’cause I’m kissin’ you goodbye!

Singers
Get your tongue out of my mouth
