It Meant Goodbye To Me When You Said Hello Lyrics - Merle Haggard

Hm hm hm, hm hm 

Hm hm hm, hm hm 

I made a big mistake when, I introduced her to my friend 

Gave him a chance to dance with her 

As I watched them in the crowd, I could hear my heart beat loud 

'Cause it meant goodbye to me when she said hello to him 

Hm hm hm, hm hm 

Hm hm hm, hm hm 

She just held on to his hand, when it was break time for the band 

And it was plain to see that I'd lost out 

So I slipped to wait and cry felt so low I could die 

'Cause it meant goodbye to me when she said hello to him 

Hm hm hm, hm hm 

Hm hm hm, hm hm 

Is there anywhere to go where a broken heart won't show 

Everyone must know what's wrong with me 

They can tell 'bout my ways, I go 'round lost in the days 

'Cause it meant goodbye to me when she said hello to him 

Hm hm hm, hm hm 

Hm hm hm, hm hm
