text: Well, I came by your house the other day
  Your mother said you went away
  She said there was nothing I couldve done
  There was nothing nobody could say
  Now, me and you, weve known each other
  Ever since we were sixteen
  I wish I would have known, I wished I could have called you
  Just to say goodbye, Bobby Jean
  Now, you hung with me when all the others
  Turned away, turned up their nose
  We liked the same music, we liked the same bands
  We liked the same clothes
  Yeah, we told each other that we were the wildest
  The wildest things wed ever seen
  I wished you would have told me, I wish I could have talked to you
  Just to say goodbye, Bobby Jean
  Now, we went walking in the rain
  Talking about the pain that from the world we hid
  Now, there aint nobody, nowhere, nohow
  Ever gonna understand me the way you did
  Well, maybe youll be out there on that road somewhere
  In some bus or train, traveling alone
  In some motel room, therell be a radio playing
  And youll hear me sing this song
  If you do, youll know Im thinking of you
  And all the miles in between
  Im just calling one last time not to change your mind
  Just to say I miss you, baby, good luck, goodbye, Bobby Jean
