Be Back Soon Lyrics

DODGER
Line up!

BOYS
Line up!

DODGER
Single file!

BOYS
Single file!
Slope arms
Left...left
Right...right...Oi! Oi!

FAGIN
You can go,
But be back soon
You can go,
But while you're working.
This place,
I'm pacing round
Until you're home,
Safe and sound

Fare thee well,
But be back soon
Who can tell
Where danger's lurking?
Do not forget this tune
Be back soon.

BOYS
How could we forget
How could we let
Our dear old Fagin worry?
We love him so.
We'll come back home
In, oh, such a great big
Hurry

DODGER
It's him that pays the piper.

BOYS
It's us that pipes his tune
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon.

FAGIN
You can go
But be back soon
You can go,
But bring back plenty
Of pocket hankerchiefs
And you should be clever thieves.
Whip it quick,
and be back soon
There's a sixpence here for twenty
Ain't that a lovely tune?
Be back soon.

DODGER
Our pockets'll hold
A watch of gold
That chimes upon the hour

BOYS
A wallet fat
An old man's hat

DODGER
The crown jewels from the tower
We know
The Bow Street Runners,

ALL
But they don't know this tune.
So long, fare thee well.
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon.

FAGIN
Cheerio, but be back soon.
I dunno, somehow I'll miss you
I love you, that why I
Say, "Cheerio"...
Not goodbye.

Don't be gone long
Be back soon.
Give me one long,
Last look...
Bless you.
Remember our old tune...
Be back soon!

BOYS
We must disappear,
We'll be back here,
Today...
...Perhaps tomorrow.
We'll miss you too

FAGIN
It's sad but true
That parting is such sweet sorrow.

ALL
And when we're in the distance
You'll hear this
Whipered tune...
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon

And when we're in the distance
You'll hear this
Whipered tune...
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon

FAGIN
Cheerio, but be back soon.
I dunno, somehow I'll miss you
I love you, that why I
Say, "Cheerio"...
Not goodbye.

Don't be gone long
Be back soon.
Give me one long,
Last look...
Bless you.
Remember our old tune...
Be back soon!

BOYS
We must disappear,
We'll be back here,
Today...
...Perhaps tomorrow.
We'll miss you too

It's sad but true
That parting is such sweet sorrow.

And when we're in the distance
You'll hear this
Whipered tune...
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon

You'll hear this
Whipered tune...
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon

And when we're in the distance
You'll hear this
Whipered tune...
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon

OLIVER
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon

BOYS
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon
