Fare Thee Well

[Verse 1]

Fare thee well my darlin' true

I'm leavin' in the hours of the morn

I'm bound for the bay of Mexico

Or maybe the coast of Californ'

[Chorus]

It's fare thee well my own true love

We'll meet another day, another time

It's not the leavin'

That's a-grievin' me

But my darlin' who's bound to stay behind

[Verse 2]

I'll write you a letter from time to time

While I ramble you can travel with me, too

With my head, my heart and my hands, my love

I'll write what I know back home to you

[Chorus]

It's fare thee well my own true love

We'll meet another day, another time

It's not the leavin'

That's a-grievin' me

But my darlin' who's bound to stay behind

[Verse 3]

I'll write you of troubles and of laughter

Be them somebody else's or my own

With my hands in my pocket, and my coat collar high

I will travel unnoticed and unknown

[Chorus x2]

It's fare thee well my own true love

We'll meet another day, another time

It's not the leavin'

That's a-grievin' me

But my darlin' who's bound to stay behind

So, it's fare thee well my own true love

We'll meet another day, another time

It's not the leavin'

That's a-grievin' me

But my darlin' who's bound to stay behind
