Bye and bye
When the morning comes
All those saints are toward his gattering home
We will tell the story how we′ll overcome
We'll understand him better
Bye and bye

Yes, bye and bye, yes
We will tell the story how we'll overcome

On that judgement day
We′ll meet our friends
Our boys that moved away
All those fine musicians
Jumping on the cloud
We will all be reunited
Bye and bye, yeah

'Cause Bix is up there and Bunny's up there
And Jack Jenney is living up there
Fats is up there, Big Sid is up there
King Oliver′s living up there

But Louie′s down here, yes, Louie's down here
And we′re lucky he's living down here
Louie never, nerver, Louie never stops
Get a load of Pops
We will tell the story how we′ll overcome
We will understand him better
Bye and bye
