Fare Thee Well

Music and lyrics by Jimmy Rankin

Fare thee Well, love
Fare thee Well, love
Far away, you must go.
Take your heart, love
Take your heart, love
Will we never meet again no more?

Far across, love
Far across, love.
O'er mountains and country wide
Take my heart, love
Take my heart, love
No one knows the tears I've cried.

So I'll drink today, love,
I'll sing to you, love
In pauper's glory, my time I'll bide
No home or ties, love,
A restless rover, if I can't have you by my side.

Oh come back, love
Oh come back, love
The sun and moon refuse to shine.
Since I've gone, love
Gone away love
this lonely girl has had no peace of mind

So I'll drink today, love,
I'll sing to you, love
In pauper's glory, my time I'll bide
No home or ties, love,
A restless rover, if I can't have you by my side.

Fare thee well love, Fare thee well love Far away, you must go. Take my heart, love Take my heart, love Will we never meet again no more?

Fare thee well, Fare thee well Far away you must go. Take my heart Take your heart Will we never meet again no more?
