Farewell

Oh, fare thee well, my darling true I'm leaving the first hour of the morn' I'm bound all for the Bay of Mexico Or maybe the coast of Californ' And fare thee well, my own true love We'll meet another day, another time It's not a leavin' that greave in me But my true love who's bound to stay behind I've heard of a city where I might as well be bound Down among the Mexican Plains They say that the people are all friendly there And all they ask of you is your name So fare thee well, my own true love We'll meet another day, another time It's not a leavin' that greave in me But my true love who's bound to stay behind All the weather is against me And the wind is blowin' hard And the rain is turning into hail But I still might strike it lucky On a highway goin' West Though I'm travelling alone Along some trail And fare thee well, my own true love We'll meet another day, another time It's not a leavin' that greave in me But my true love who's bound to stay behind I'll write you of the laughter and the souls With they somebody else as or my own With my hands in my pockets and my cold polar high I'll travel unnoticed and alone And fare thee well, my own true love We'll meet another day, another time It's not a leavin' that greave in me But my true love who's bound to stay behind
