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)
