Lyrics

Pre-Be Sharps version

Skinner:

Goodbye,

Homer:

Goodbye,

Wiggum:

Goodbye,

Apu:

Goodbye,

All:

Goodbye my Coney Island baby,

Farewell my one true love, (true love),

I'm gonna go away and leave you...

Never to see you any, Wiggum: (never gonna see you any)

I'm gonna sail upon that ferry boat,

Never to return again.

Goodbye my Coney Island,

Goodbye my Coney Island babe.

Goodbye my Coney Island baby,

Farewell my one true love, (true love),

I'm gonna go away and leave you,

Never to see you any, Wiggum: (never gonna see you any)

I'm gonna sail upon that ferry boat,

Never to return again.

Homer:

So goodbye,

Wiggum:

Farewell,

Apu:

Shop Kwik-E-Mart and save,

All:

Goodbye my Coney Isle,

Goodbye my Coney Isle,

Goodbye my Coney Island babe.

Be Sharps version

All:

Goodbye my Coney Isle,

Goodbye my Coney Isle,

Goodbye my Coney Island baby. Skinner: (Goodbye my Coney Island babe.)
