Toot, Toot, Tootsie (Goo'bye) Composer(s): Gus Kahn - Ernie Erdman - Ted FioRito - Dan Russo First performance: Al Jolson - 1921 Covered by multiple other artists
Yesterday I heard a lover sigh "Goodbye, oh me, oh my" Seven times he got aboard his train And seven times he hurried back To kiss his love again, and tell her...
Toot, toot, Tootsie, goo'bye Toot, toot, Tootsie, don't cry The choo choo train that takes me Away from you, no words can tell how sad it makes me Kiss me, Tootsie, and then Do it over again Watch for the mail, I'll never fail If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail Tut, tut, Tootsie, don't cry Toot, toot, Tootsie, goo'bye!
When somebody says goodbye to me I'm sad as I can be, Not so with this loving Romeo He seemed to take a lot of pleasure Saying goodbye to his treasure...
Toot, toot, Tootsie, goo'bye Toot, toot, Tootsie, don't cry The choo choo train that takes me Away from you, no words can tell how sad it makes me Kiss me, Tootsie, and then Do it over again Watch for the mail, I'll never fail If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail Tut, tut, Tootsie, don't cry Toot, toot, Tootsie, goo'bye!
