Odetta - Fare Thee Well lyrics

If I had wings Like a north dove I'd fly across the river To the one I love Fare thee well, my honey Fare thee well Woke up this morning It was drizzling rain Around my heart Felt an aching pain Fare thee well, my honey Fare thee well One of these mornings And it won't be long You'll gonna call my name Baby, I'll be gone Fare thee well, my honey Fare thee well I had a man He was big and tall He moved his body Like a cannonball Fare thee well, my honey Fare thee well If I had the wings Of a north dove I'd fly across the river To the one I love Fare thee well, my honey Fare thee well
