Dink's Song

If I had wings like Noah's dove I'd fly that river to the one I love Fare thee well my honey oh fare thee well Well I had a woman She was long and tall She moved her body Like a cannonball Fare thee well my honey oh fare thee well One of these days And it won't be long You'll call my name And I'll be gone Fare thee well my honey oh fare thee well I remember one night It was drizzling rain Down in my heart Lies an aching pain Fare thee well my honey oh fare thee well Well I used to wear M apron low I couldn't keep you From coming round my door Fare thee well my honey oh fare thee well Well now my apron Is up to my chin Though you pass my door You'll never come in Fare thee well my honey oh fare thee well If I had listened To what my mama said Well I'd be at home In my mama's bed Fare thee well my honey oh fare thee well
