| [00:05.36] |
Oh I'm sayin' oh, it's fare thee well, my darlin' true |
| [00:13.58] |
I'm leavin' in the first hour of the morn |
| [00:18.98] |
I'm bound off for the bay of Mexico |
| [00:24.95] |
Or maybe the coast of California |
| [00:30.37] |
So it's fare thee well, my own true love |
| [00:35.57] |
We'll meet another day, another time |
| [00:41.55] |
It ain't the leavin' that's a-grievin' me |
| [00:47.86] |
But my true love who's bound to stay behind |
| [00:53.81] |
Oh, the weather is against me and the wind blows hard |
| [00:59.68] |
And the rain, she's a-turnin' into hail |
| [01:05.08] |
I still might strike it lucky on a highway goin' west |
| [01:12.34] |
Though I'm travelin' on a path beaten trail |
| [01:16.56] |
So it's fare thee well, my own true love |
| [01:22.16] |
We'll meet another day, another time |
| [01:27.28] |
It ain't the leavin' that's a-grievin' me |
| [01:33.92] |
But my darlin' who's bound to stay behind |
| [01:38.98] |
I will write you a letter from time to time |
| [01:45.08] |
As I'm ramblin', you can travel with me too |
| [01:50.68] |
With my head, my heart and my hands, my love |
| [01:56.73] |
I will send what I learn back home to you |
| [02:02.26] |
So it's fare thee well, my own true love |
| [02:08.31] |
We'll meet another day, another time |
| [02:13.12] |
It ain't the leavin' that's a-grievin' me |
| [02:19.76] |
But my true love who's bound to stay behind |
| [02:25.27] |
I will tell you of the laughter and of troubles |
| [02:30.81] |
Be them somebody else's or my own |
| [02:35.82] |
With my hands in my pockets and my coat collar high |
| [02:42.03] |
I will travel unnoticed and unknown |
| [02:48.18] |
So it's fare thee well, my own true love |
| [02:57.91] |
We'll meet another day, another time |
| [02:58.42] |
It ain't the leavin' that's a-grievin' me |
| [03:04.84] |
But my true love who's bound to stay behind |
| [03:10.16] |
I've heard tell of a town where I might as well be bound |
| [03:15.68] |
It's down around the old Mexican plains |
| [03:20.90] |
They say that the people are all friendly there |
| [03:26.85] |
And all they ask of you is your name |
| [03:32.79] |
So it's fare thee well, my own true love |
| [03:38.43] |
We'll meet another day, another time |
| [03:43.76] |
It ain't the leavin' that's a-grievin' me |
| [03:49.99] |
But my true love who's bound to stay behind |
| [03:55.38] |
