"9: Be Back Soon"

[FAGIN]

You can go, 
But be back soon
You can go,
But while you're working.
This place,
I'm pacing round...
Until you're home,
...Safe and sound 

(ALL)
Fare thee well, 
But be back soon
Who can tell
Where danger's lurking?
Do not forget this tune
Be back soon.

[PICKPOCKETS]
How could we forget
How could we let
Our dear old Fagin worry?
We love him so.
We'll come back home
In, oh, such a great big hurry 

[DODGER]
It's him that pays the piper. 

[PICKPOCKETS]
It's us that calls the tune 
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon! 

​(REPEAT: All singing.)
