Don't Say Goodbye Lyrics - Singles - Radney Foster

Well, I heard it from confidential sources 

That you've been thinking 'bout losing my name 

And you've been dialin' some unlisted number 

At some Memphis, Tennessee exchange 

Well, your plannin' on headin' down the highway 

This time you're going for good 

Well, honey don't think twice 'bout the pain you leave behind 

Just do me one favor if you would 

Don't say goodbye, just slam the door 

Don't apologize, that only makes it hurt more 

All your sympathy, will only make me cry 

So get out, go on, get gone and don't say goodbye 

Now you were hoping you could break it to me gently 

You were thinkin' we could part as friends 

And if I'd only try and remain civil 

I'd see it your way in the end 

Well, pardon me while I beg to differ 

'Cause I'm the one who's gotta live with the pain 

And when you're out on the town, I'll still be broke down 

Don't you bother with tryin' to explain 

Don't say goodbye, just slam the door 

Don't apologize, that only makes it hurt more 

All your sympathy, will only make me cry 

So get out, go on, get gone and don't say goodbye 

I don't need to have all the reasons numbered 

You can save those condolences for some other guy 

Baby, some other time 

Don't say goodbye, just slam the door 

Don't apologize, that only makes it hurt more 

Baby, if you act so weak, it's gonna make me cry, cry, cry 

So get out, go on, get gone and don't say goodbye 

Yeah, get out, go on, get gone and don't say goodbye
