The Kingston Trio

Seasons In The Sun

Adieu Emil, my trusted friend

We've known each other since we were nine or ten

Together we climbed hills and trees

Learned of love and ABC's

Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees

Adieu Emil, it's hard to die

When all the bird's are singing in the sky

Now that the spring is in the air

Pretty girls are everywhere

Think of me and I'll be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the hills we would climb were just seasons out of time

Adieu Papa, please pray for me

I was the black sheep of the family

You tried to teach me right from wrong

Too much wine and too much song

Wonder how I got along

Adieu Papa, it's hard to die

When all the bird's are singing in the sky

Now that the spring is in the air

Little children everywhere

When you see them, I'll be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

Adieu Françoise, my trusted wife

Without you I'd have a lonely life

You cheated lots of times but then

I forgave you in the end

Though your lover was my friend

Adieu Françoise, it's hard to die

When all the birds are singing in the sky

Now that the spring is in the air

With your lovers everywhere

Just be careful, I'll be there

All our lives we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach

Adieu, Emile. Adieu, Papa. Adieu, Françoise

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

All our lives we had fun we had seasons in the sun

But the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach
