Bye-Bye country boy
You've been a joy, a shiny toy
Glad we played your County Fair
I'm glad you came to see me there
I sang that song, looked right at you
You came backstage like I knew you'd do
It's a doggone shame our week is through
Bye-Bye country boy, sweet shy country boy

Bye-Bye country boy
Your Sunday clothes, you brought a rose
I love the hot-rod moonlight spins
Those sleepy roomy country inns
Your voice sends my world aways
Those sunny laughing picnic days
You've been a joy, a shiny toy
Bye-Bye country boy, sweet shy country boy

Bye-Bye country boy
It's time to go, it's closing show
You still think that I'm a star
Just shows how hazy dumb you are
If you'd just say "Hey, stick around"
I'd tell my Band I ain't leavin' town
But you don't dream I'd settle down
Do you country boy, sweet shy country boy

Bye-Bye country boy
I got to pack, I can't look back
Don't come 'round and say goodbye
You mustn't see a big star cry
But once I'm home in old L.A.
My heart and mind will be miles away
Still wishing you had made me stay
Bye-Bye country boy, sweet shy country boy

You've been a joy, a shiny toy
I got to pack, I can't look back

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
