[Verse 1]
Said you took a big trip, they said you moved away
Happened oh so quietly, they say

[Chorus]

Everyone says 'hi'
[Bridge]
If the money is lousy, you can always come home
We can do the old things, we can do all the bad things
If the food gets you leery, you can always phone
We could do all the good things
We could do it, we could do it, we could do it

Don't stay in a bad place
Where they don't care how you are
[Chorus]
Everyone says 'hi'

Everyone says 'hi'
And your big fat dog
Everyone says 'hi'
Everyone says 'hi'
Hi hi hi hi
