Yesterday I heard a lover sigh
"Goodbye, oh me, oh my"
Seven times he got aboard his train
And seven times he hurried back
To kiss his love again, and tell her

Toot, toot, Tootsie, goodbye
Toot, toot, Tootsie, don't cry
The choo choo train that takes me
Away from you, no words can tell how sad it makes me
Kiss me, Tootsie, and then
Do it over again
Watch for the mail, I'll never fail
If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail
Tut, tut, Tootsie, don't cry
Toot, toot, Tootsie, goodbye!

When somebody says goodbye to me
I'm sad as I can be,
Not so with this loving Romeo
He seemed to take a lot of pleasure
Saying goodbye to his treasure

Toot, toot, Tootsie, goodbye
Toot, toot, Tootsie, don't cry
The choo choo train that takes me
Away from you, no words can tell how sad it makes me
Kiss me, Tootsie, and then
Do it over again
Watch for the mail, I'll never fail
If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail
Tut, tut, Tootsie, don't cry
Toot, toot, Tootsie, goodbye!

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
