Everyone says hi by David Bowie (original lyrics)

said you took a big trip

they said you moved away

happened oh so quietly

they say

shoulda took a picture

something i could keep

buy a little frame

something cheap

for you

everyone says hi

said you sailed a big ship

said you sailed away

didnt know the right thing

to say

id love to get a letter

like to know whats what

hope the weathers good

and its not too hot

for you

everyone says hi

everyone says hi

everyone says

dont stay in a sad place

where they dont care how you are

everyone says hi

if the money is lousy

you can always come home

we can do the old things

we can do all the bad things

if the food gets you leery

you can always phone

we could do all the good things

we could do it we could do it

we could do it

dont stay in a bad place

where they dont care how you are

everyone says hi

everyone says hi

everyone says hi

and the girl next door

and the guy upstairs

everyone says hi

and your mum and dad

everyone says hi

and your big fat dog

everyone says hi

everyone says hi
