Judy Collins - Farewell Lyrics
Oh fare thee well, my darlin' true
I'm leavin' the first hour of the morn
I'm bound off for the bay of Mexico
Or maybe the coast of Californ'
So fare thee well my own true love
We'll meet another day, another time
It's not the leavin' that's grievin' me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind
The weather is against me and the wind blows hard
The rain is turning into hail
I still might strike it lucky on a highway goin' west
Though I'm travelin' on a lonesome trail
So fare thee well my own true love
We'll meet another day, another time
It's not the leavin' that's grievin' me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind
I'll tell you of the laughter and the troubles
Be they somebody else's or my own
With my hands in my pockets and my coat collar high
I'll travel unnoticed and unknown
So fare thee well my own true love
We'll meet another day, another time
It's not the leavin' that's grievin' me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind
I've heard tell of a town where I might as well be bound
Down around the Mexican plain
They say that the people all are friendly there
All they ask of you is your name
So fare thee well my own true love
We'll meet another day, another time
It's not the leavin' that's grievin' me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind
