Goodbye Yellow Brick Road Lyrics – Elton John

Come Back Baby Lyrics

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When are you gonna come down?
When are you going to land?
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man

You know you can’t hold me forever
I didn’t sign up with you
I’m not a present for your friends to open
This boy’s too young to be singin’ the blues

[Refrain]
Ah, ah-ah ah ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah

[Chorus]
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can’t plant me in your penthouse
I’m goin’ back to my plough

Back to the howlin’ old owl in the woods
Huntin’ the horny-back toad

Oh, I’ve finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road

[Refrain]
Ah, ah-ah ah ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah

[Verse 2]
What do you think you’ll do, then?
I bet they shoot down the plane

It’ll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again

Maybe you’ll get a replacement
There’s plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who ain’t got a penny
Sniffin’ for tidbits like you on the ground

[Refrain]
Ah, ah-ah ah ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah

[Chorus]
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can’t plant me in your penthouse
I’m goin’ back to my plough

Back to the howlin’ old owl in the woods
Huntin’ the horny-back toad

Oh, I’ve finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road

[Refrain]
Ah, ah-ah ah ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah
