Be Back Soon lyrics

FAGIN

You can go but be back soon

You can go but while you're working

This place i'm pacing round

Until you're home safe and sound

Fare the well but be back soon

Who can tell where danger's lurking

Do not forget this tune

Be back soon!

BOYS

How could we forget

How could we let

Our dear old Fagin worry

We love him so we'll come back home

In a such a great big hurry

It's him who plays the piper

It's the one that pipes his tune!

So long fare the well, pip pip cheerio

We'll be back soon!

FAGIN

Cheerio but be back soon

I don't know somehow I'll miss you

I love you that's why I

Say cheerio not goodbye

Don't be gone long, be back soon

Give me one long last look, bless you

Remember our old tune

Be back soon!

You can go but be back soon

You can go but bring back plenty

Of wallets full of cash

Don't want to see any trash

Whip them quick and be back soon

Only thick ones now, not empty

Get rich this afternoon

Be back soon!

BOY #1

Our pockets hold a watch of gold

That chimes upon the hour!

BOY #2

A wallet fat, an old man's hat

BOY #3

The jewels from the tower

BOYS

We know the nosy policemen

But they don't know this tune

So long fare the well, pip pip cheerio

We'll be back soon!

FAGIN

Cheerio but be back soon

I don't know somehow I'll miss you

I love you that's why I

Say cheerio not goodbye

Don't be gone long be back soon

Give me one long last god bless you

Remember our old tune

Be back soon!

BOYS

And when we're in the distance

You'll hear this whispered tune

So long fare the well, pip pip cheerio

We'll be back soon!

OLIVER

So long fare the well, pip pip cheerio

We'll be back soon!

BOYS

So long fare the well, pip pip cheerio

We'll be back soon!

FAGIN

Cheerio but be back soon

I don't know somehow I'll miss you

I love you that's why I

Say cheerio not goodbye

BOYS

And when we're in the distance

You'll hear this whispered tune

So long fare the well, pip pip cheerio

We'll be back soon!
