If I had wings like Noah's dove I'd fly the river to the one I love Fare thee well, oh honey, fare thee well Remember one evening, it was drizzlin' rain And around my heart, there was an achin' pain Fare thee well, oh my honey, fare thee well I had a gal she was long and tall And she could move her body just like a cannon ball Fare thee well, oh honey, fare thee well One of these days any mornin' now and it won't be long You're gonna call my name and I'll be gone Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well
