Gee, a song like this could get a guy into a lot of trouble...

GOODBYE MY CONEY ISLAND BABY
(Words and Music by Les Applegate)
© 1948, Mills Music, Inc.

We all fall for some girl that dresses neat,
Some girl that's got big feet.
We meet her on the street.
Then we'll join the army of married boobs,
To the altar,
Just like leading lambs to slaughter.
When it's over, oh boy we get it good;
Bachelor days we then recall,
Rich man, poor man, beggarman, thief,
Doctor, lawyer, merchant chief.
We all are bound for matrimony.

Goodbye My Coney Island Baby
Farewell, my own true love.
I'm gonna go away and leave you,
Never to see you anymore.
I'm goin' to sail upon that ferry boat,
Never to return again.
So goodbye, farewell, so long forever.
Goodbye my Coney Isle,
Goodbye my Coney Isle,
Goodbye my Coney Island babe.
