Got a girl
Who's long and tall
She moves her body
Like a cannon ball

Fare thee well oh honey
Fare thee well

If i'd listen
What my father said
Wouldn't have such confusion
In my aching head

Fare thee well oh honey
Fare thee well


One day soon
And it won't be long
Someone will call my name
And i'll be gone

Fare thee well oh honey
Fare thee well

All last night
In a drizzling rain
All around my heart
Was an aching pain

Fare thee well oh honey
Fare thee well

If i had wings
Like noah's dove
I'd fly up the river
To the one i love

Fare thee well oh honey
Fare thee well

Fare thee well oh honey
Fare thee well
