Lyrics: 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 woke up this morning It was drizzling rain all around my heart Oh there was an aching pain Fare thee well oh my honey, I say fare thee well Now when you wore your apron low You couldn't keep me No you couldn't keep me from around your door Fare thee well oh my honey, I say fare thee well Now you wear your apron high You say you never, oh you never you Scarcely ever see me passing by Fare thee well oh my honey I say fare thee well Goodbye woman I know I done you wrong Oh fare thee well |
