GOOD-BY, OLD YEAR
Good-by, Old year!
Good-by!
We have been happy—you and I;
We have been glad in many ways;
And now, that you have come to die,
Remembering our happy days,
'Tis hard to say, “Good-by—
Good-by, Old Year!
Good-by!”
Good-by!

Good-by!”
Good-by, Old Year!
Good-by!
We have seen sorrow—you and I—
Such hopeless sorrow, grief and care,
That now, that you have come to die,
Remembering our old despair,
'Tis sweet to say, “Good-by—
Good-by, Old Year!
Good-by!”
