For although I loved her she would not be my bride. Oh goodbye softly sweet one it was splendid wild it grand Goodbye my pretty white girl, I forget you if I can. She came up to the pueblo with her bright blond hair. They told me not to love her, what I did not care. She took me to her parties, she carried me around And I was a proud one the tallest man in town. For I found great wonder all wrapped in brilliant dreams I held her strong but gentle as kings have held their queens I learned to drink strong whiskey, as she took me here and there. Until life without my whiskey I could not bear Oh goodbye softly sweet one it was splendid wild it grand Goodbye my pretty white girl, I forget you if I can. [ Guitar ] Well, when she came to leave me she took me by the arm, And she said she loved me and would not do me harm. But she would not marry, not an Indian she said. She thanked me for my offer and I wished that I was dead. Now I'm back among my people and they are kind to me. Although I'm sad with staggers, when I drink that tough whiskey. For I've been a white girl's pet a captive Indian Shown off and discarded just a drunk who might have been Oh goodbye softly sweet one it was splendid wild it grand Goodbye my pretty white girl, I forget you if I can.
