If I had wings
Like Noah's dove
I'd fly up the river
To the one I love

Fare thee well
Oh honey
Fare thee well

Early one morning
Drizling rain
Yeah
In my heart
I felt an aching pain

Fare thee well
Oh honey
Fare thee well

The women I love
Long and tall
She moves her body
Like a cannon ball

Fare thee well
Oh honey
Fare thee well
One of these morning
It won't be long
You'll call my name
And I'll be gone

Fare thee well
Oh honey
Fare thee well

If I had wings
Like Noah's dove
I'd fly up the river
To the one I love

Fare thee well, oh honey
Fare thee well
