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
