Fare Thee Well - Harry Belafonte

If I had wings like Noah's dove

I'd fly up the river just to see

the woman that I love

Fare thee well oh my honey

I say fare thee well

When I wake up this morning

It was a drizzling rain

All the around my heart

all the wasn't an aching pain

Fare thee well oh my honey

I say fare thee well

Now when you wore you apron low

You couldn't keep in

Now you couldn't keep in

from my round you door

Fare thee well oh my honey

I say fare thee well

Now you wear you apron high

You say you never won't you never

You scarcely ever see you passing by

Fare thee well oh my honey

I say fare thee well

Fare thee well

Goodbye woman I know I darling well

Fare thee well
