Mikey’s leaving in the morning
It’s finally come to that
Mama’s upstairs snoring
As Dad awaits his heart attack

Any way you slice it
The big guy is on the move
Lasting kisses and bear hugs
As Mikey’s off to find his groove

Oh Mikey oh Mikey
When you coming home boy
My heart aches for your company

Oh Mikey oh Mikey
Yearning for your return
This distance between us
Is ailing me

Mikey’s got his bike packed
Right next to his books
His parents hope he gets it right
As he writes his song

It’s been said that Burlington
Was served up on a Trey
It will soon discover
The new guy has a lot to say

Oh Mikey oh Mikey
When you coming home boy
My heart aches for your company

Oh Mikey oh Mikey
Yearning for your return
This distance between us
Is ailing me

The vistas of Vermont beckon
The beauty so curvaceous
They lead you to Henry’s Dinner
With omelettes so delicious

The Jeep is looking pretty tight
As the journey north begins
If Daddy slept last night
Mama’s sleeping in

Oh Mikey oh Mikey
When you coming home boy
My heart aches for your company

Oh Mikey oh Mikey
Yearning for your return
This distance between us
Is ailing me
