You must leave now take what you need

You think will last

But whatever you wish to keep you better grab it fast



Yonder stands your orphan with his gun

Crying like a fire in the sun

Look out baby, the saints are comin' through

And it's all over now baby blue



The highway is for gamblers better use your sense

Take what you have gathered from coincidence

The empty handed painter from your streets

Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets

The sky too is fallin in over you- ooo

And it's all over now baby blue



(instrumental)



Leave your stepping stones behind

There's something that calls for you

Forget the debt you left that will not follow you



Your lover who has just walked through the door

Has taken all his blankets from the floor

The carpet too is foldin' over you

And it's all over now baby blue



Well strike another match, yeah, go start a-new

Go start a-new

'cause it's all over now baby blue

Hey, hey, yeah

It's all over, it's all over now baby blue

It's all over, it's all over now oh yeah

Fades

It's all over now, it's all over now baby blue
