Brokedown Palace

[Verse 1]
Fare you well, my honey
Fare you well my only true one
All the birds that were singing
Are flown except you alone

[Refrain]
Gonna leave this brokedown 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
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 2]
River gonna take me
Sing me sweet and sleepy
Sing me sweet and sleepy
All the way back home
It's a far gonе lullaby
Sung many years ago
Mama, mama, many worlds I've come
Sincе I first left home

[Refrain]
Goin' home, goin' home
By the waterside I will lay my bones
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
To rock my soul

[Verse 3]
Going to plant a weeping willow
On the bank's green edge it will grow, grow, grow
Sing a lullaby beside the water
Lovers come and go, the river roll, roll, roll

[Refrain]
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

[Outro]
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-hoo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-hoo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
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
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
To rock my soul
