《50 ways to leave your lover》的歌詞如下：
Verse 1:
I'm going down to the station
Take the first train I can
Mama, I don't feel too good in here
Maybe it's goodbye for now
Chorus:
Fifty ways to leave your lover
Turn off all the lights and sneak out the back door
Fifty ways to leave your lover
Without saying a word at all
Verse 2:
Find another town and maybe start again
Let the calendar take me far away
Sister, it don't feel right in here
It's more than goodbye for now
Chorus:
Fifty ways to leave your lover
You know you might have heard this one before
Fifty ways to leave your lover
Just give me the word and I'll be gone
Bridge:
Haven't been much of a talker but if it's over
Just let me go with a whisper or a song
Baby, there are fifty ways I will go down and take the first train I can
It might be goodbye for now
Chorus:
Fifty ways to leave your lover
Well, there might be other girls who might do it better than I could
Fifty ways to leave your lover
Oh, yeah, it might be over, I don't know about
It, it, it... maybe we should take a little time and talk about it, yeah.
