My name is Charlie Blumberg
And I travel everywhere
'Cause I'm a traveling salesman
So I fly from here to there
In every town I visit
Folks must think I'm really swell
'Cause everytime I leave a town
I get a fond farewell
Every time I fly away people cry
And they say, Bye bye, Blumberg
It's a shame I have to go
Seeing as how they miss me so
Bye bye, Blumberg
Once I took a trip with Irving Cohen
No one even noticed he was goin'
Me they smashed across the head
With champagne
And they said, Blumberg, bye bye
Packed my Playboy magazine
Drip-dry shirt and Dramamine
It's bye bye, Blumberg
All night I'm like Don Juan
But sorry, girls, I fly at dawn
Bye bye, Blumberg
The stewardess says, Fasten safety belt, sir
Then she serves me coffee, tea, or seltzer
And each night when I retire
The Mormon Tabernacle choir sings
Blumberg, bye bye
I was in Cambodia
They don't say hello to ya
Just, Bye bye, Blumberg
In the Archipelagos
No matter where a fella goes
Bye bye, Blumberg
Even in Arabia when I fly by
Abdul Nasser stands there waving bye bye
And you'll see when I'm really gone
In neon lights at Forest Lawn
Blumberg, bye bye
Beloved Blumberg
Oh, Blumberg, ah, bye bye
Look up in the sky
You will find a Blumberg of happiness
