Down at the Cold War Institute
They were signing new [bad word] 
He went down to the station in his three piece suit
Now she had cried for him to stay
But there was nothing more to say
As she was waving a white kerchief as the train pulled away
Singing bye, bye baby boy I hope they treat you well, well, well

It was another situation as the train left the station
It was hello Hopeville I need a vacation
Now the world's been [bad word] 
This time she really let me down
I thought I'd go back to school
Yeak, try to clean up this town
And now it's hello Hopeville
I know you're gonna treat me well, well, well
Well, well, well
Get gone!

Well, well, well, looky here, looky here
Well, well, well, what have we got here
Got me [bad word] kid
Got no money never did
Got the sense [bad word] in out of the rain
Uh, he was waitin' for a station just like some people wait for a train
And I'm singing bye, bye baby boy I hope they treat you well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
