Carl StoryDistant Land To Roam Lyrics
[Chorus]
Mother said (Mother said)
My dear boy (My dear boy)
I hope to see you next year again
Fare thee well (Fare thee well)
Fare thee well (Fare thee well)
So I left my dear old home
For a distant land to roam
[Verse 1]
I remember very well
On one dark and dreary day
Just as I was leaving home
For a distant land to roam
[Chorus]
Mother said (Mother said)
My dear boy (My dear boy)
I hope to see you next year again
Fare thee well (Fare thee well)
Fare thee well (Fare thee well)
So I left my dear old home
For a distant land to roam
[Verse 2]
The last words mother said to me
As she took me by the hand
If on earth we meet no more
Meet me in the promised land
[Chorus]
Mother said (Mother said)
My dear boy (My dear boy)
I hope to see you next year again
Fare thee well (Fare thee well)
Fare thee well (Fare thee well)
So I left my dear old home
For a distant land to roam
