Odetta - Fare Thee Well lyrics

rate me

If I had wings<br />

Like a north dove<br />

I'd fly across the river<br />

To the one I love<br />

Fare thee well, my honey<br />

Fare thee well<br />

<br />

Woke up this morning<br />

It was drizzling rain<br />

Around my heart<br />

Felt an aching pain<br />

Fare thee well, my honey<br />

Fare thee well<br />

<br />

One of these mornings<br />

And it won't be long<br />

You'll gonna call my name<br />

Baby, I'll be gone<br />

Fare thee well, my honey<br />

Fare thee well<br />

<br />

I had a man<br />

He was big and tall<br />

He moved his body<br />

Like a cannonball<br />

Fare thee well, my honey<br />

Fare thee well<br />

<br />

If I had the wings<br />

Of a north dove<br />

I'd fly across the river<br />

To the one I love<br />

Fare thee well, my honey<br />

Fare thee well<br />
