Fare Thee Well Lyrics

INTRO:
VRS 1:
Oh, fare thee well my darling true
I'm leaving the first hour of the morn'
I'm bound all for the Bay of Mexico
Or maybe the coast of Californ'
HORUS:
Then fare thee well my own true love
We'll meet another day, another time
It's not a leaving that's grieving me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind
VRS 2:
I've heard of a city where I might as well be bound
Down among the Mexican plain
They say that the people are all friendly there
All they ask of you is your name
HORUS:
So, fare thee well my own true love
We'll meet another day, another time
It's not a leaving that's grieving me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind
VRS 3:
Oh, the weather is against me and the wind is blowing hard
And the rain is turning into hail
But I still might strike it lucky on a highway going west
Though I'm travelling along a lonesome trail
HORUS:
Then fare thee well my own true love
We'll meet another day, another time
It's not a leaving that's grieving me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind

VRS 4:
I write to you of the laughter and the sorrow
Be they somebody else's or my own
With my hands in my pockets and my coat collar high
I'll travel unnoticed and alone
HORUS:
Then fare thee well my own true love
We'll meet another day, another time
It's not a leaving that's grieving me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind
