I was just seventeen, when I made the AHL
I couldn't skate in junior, but my fists rang like a bell I'll never win a title, and I'll never win the cup
But when it comes to ladies, I've had the best of luck

My first girl was a sly one, she's hanging round the rink
They sent me off to Cornwall, as fast as you could blink
In Moose Jaw I was right in love, the daughter of the coach
He traded me for nothing, didn't take to my approach

So goodbye, fare thee well
There's no time for delay
You'll see me at the face-off
Or catch the play-by-play
So goodbye, fare thee well
I'm glad you shared my bed
But never trust a fellow
With a helmet on his head

Chantal was from Moncton, elle a jouer avec moiA tongue as sharp as razors, but she had a fancy carHer husband was a bruiser, played senior in QuebecAnd if he'd had the rights of it, it would have been my neck
So goodbye, fare thee wellThere's no time for delayYou'll see me at the face-offOr catch the play-by-play
So goodbye, fare thee wellI'm glad you shared my bedBut never trust a fellow With a helmet on his head
And Nancy couldn't watch me fight, she'd always be in tearsWaving from the bleachers, and screaming in my earsAnd she, I could have married, and we had a dandy flingBut I had a one way contract, blew the money for the ring
So goodbye, fare thee wellThere's no time for delayYou'll see me at the face-offOr catch the play-by-play
So goodbye, fare thee wellI'm glad you shared my bedBut never trust a fellow With a helmet on his head
Yeah, I should have sent the letter, and it would have been politeI'm cleaning out my locker, and time is getting tightI'm calling from the station, perhaps another day'Cause they're calling up a rookie, and they're trading me away
So goodbye, fare thee wellThere's no time for delayYou'll see me at the face-offOr catch the play-by-play
So goodbye, fare thee wellI'm glad you shared my bedBut never trust a fellow With a helmet on his head
No never trust a fellowWith a helmet on his headDon't ever trust a fellowWith a helmet on his headFare thee well
