[Verse 1]
Fare you well, my honey
Fare you well, my only true one
All the birds that were singing
Have flown except you alone
[Verse 2]
I'm goin' to leave this broke-down palace
On my hands and my knees I will roll, roll, roll
Make myself a bed by the waterside
In my time, in my time I will roll, roll, roll
[Chorus]
In a bed, in a bed
By the waterside I will lay my head
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
To rock my soul
[Verse 3]
River's gonna take me, sing me sweet and sleepy
Sing me sweet and sleepy all the way back home
It's a far-gone lullaby, we sung it many years ago
Mama, Mama many worlds I've come since I first left home
[Chorus]
Goin' home, goin' home
By the riverside I will rest my bones
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
To rock my soul
[Verse 4]
I'm goin' to plant a weeping willow
On the bank's green edge, and it will grow, grow, grow
Sing a lullaby beside the water
Lovers come and go; the river roll, roll, roll
[Chorus]
Fare you well, fare you well
I love you more than words can tell
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
To rock my soul
Fare you well, fare you well
I love you more than words can tell
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
To rock my soul
