I'm Bringing Home Good News    (1969)

Yeah I'm bringin' home some good news
Got some things you'll be glad to hear
Like I'm leavin' town, I'll be back around
Just long enough to get my gear
There won't be any goodbye kissin'
Well, I'm puttin' on my leavin' shoes
This is the end, we're through, it's over
Yeah, I'm bringin' home some good news

Well I was sittin' downtown in a tavern
When I made up my mind to go
And I knew you would be so glad to be free
I just thought I'd call you to let you know
Oh you can tell all your backdoor daddy's
That your big daddy's done blew a fuse
This is the end, we're through, it's over
Yeah, I'm bringin' home some good news

To you I been known as bad news
Well, I'm changin' my first name
And I'm givin' you your freedom, baby
That oughta rate some kinda change
You won't have to hide your milkman slippers
I won't be lookin' around for blues
This is the end, we're through, it's over
Yeah, I'm bringin' home good news

Good news
Got some good news for you, honey
I'm bringin' home some good news
I'm bringin' home some good news, honey
