She's Leaving Home Paroles

She goes downstairs to the kitchen

Clutching her hankerchief

Quietly turning the backdoor key

Stepping outside she is free.

She (We gave her most of our lives)

Is leaving (Sacrificed most of our lives)

Home (We gave her everything money could buy)

She's leaving home after living alone

For so many years. Bye, bye.

Father smores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
She breaks down and cries to her husband

Daddy our baby's gone.

Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly

How could she do this to me.

She (We never thought of ourselves)

Is leaving (Never a thought for ourselves)

Home (We struggled hard all our lives to get by)

She's leaving home after living alone

For so many years. Bye, bye.

Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away

Waiting to keep the appointment she made

Meeting a man from the motor trade.

She (What did we do that was wrong)

Is leaving (We didn't know it was wrong)

Home (Fun is the one thing that money can't buy)

Something inside that was always denied

For so many years. Bye, bye.

She's leaving home bye bye.
