The Essex Green Tinker lyrics

She heard the news and she wondered how anyone could run so far away from a good thing, she wanted him to stay
But he was sneaky, he found another girl and now he's gone

She heard it second-hand
He's leaving off the land

Bye-bye, Tinker, goodbye...

She only wanted the truth, and nothing more
But he left her hangin', yeah
He left her hangin', yeah


She's got the words to describe him, in her gossip column and he sure has it coming 'cause he found another girl and now he's gone
But with the news that she's making, she'll find another boy before too long, after he's gone she'll laugh that she had cried a tear at all

She hopes that he will stay on the coast of Monterey

Bye-bye, Tinker, goodbye...(bye-bye)
