It's Time To Say So Long
by Teresa & Paul Jennings
Now here's a short and sweet way to end the year. Or the day, the week, the month, your class period, your concert, a visit to or from someone or somewhere... You get the idea. Our own inspiration was indeed the end of the school year, which amazingly, it seems to be once again. And rather than make it too deep and emotional, we decided sometimes it's best to just say, "So long!"
The lighthearted jazzy accompaniment helps keep it smile-worthy as do the lyrics: "By the time we finish this song,... it's time to say so long." The simple call and response melody makes it super easy to learn, too.
