You can go, but be back soon. You can go, but while you're working This place, I'm pacing 'round Until you're home, safe and sound.
Fare thee well, but be back soon. Who can tell where danger's lurking? Do not forget this tune: be back soon. BOYS: How could we forget How could we let Our dear old Fagin worry? We love him so, We'll come back home In, oh, such a great big hurry. DODGER: It's him that pays the piper. BOYS: It's us that pipes his tune. So long, fare thee well, Pip! Pip! Cheerio! We'll be back soon. FAGIN: You can go but be back soon. You can go, but bring back plenty Of pocket handkerchieves; And you should be clever thieves. Whip it quick, and be back soon. There's a sixpence here for twenty: Ain't that a lovely tune? Be back soon. DODGER: Our pockets'll hold A watch of gold That chimes upon the hour. BOYS: A wallet fat An old man's hat The crown jewels from the tower. We know the Bow Street Runners, DODGER: But they don't know this tune: ALL: So long, fare thee well. Pip! Pip! Cheerio! We'll be back soon. FAGIN: Cheerio, but be back soon. I dunno, somehow I'll miss you. I love you, that's why I Say, "Cheerio" Not goodbye.
Don't be gone long Be back soon. Give me one long last look, bless you. Remember our old tune: be back soon! BOYS: We must disappear, We'll be back here, Today, perhaps tomorrow. We'll miss you too It's sad but true That parting is such sweet sorrow.
And when we're in the distance You'll hear this whispered tune: So long, fare thee well Pip! Pip! Cheerio! We'll be back soon.
