Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fair thee well, my pretty little maid, fair thee well for a while
I'm goin' away to the merry green land
More than one thousand miles
More than one thousand miles
[Verse 2]
I'm leavin' in the month of May, hope you understand
Will you ever prove false to me
When I'm in some foreign land?
When I'm in some foreign land
[Verse 3]
I will never prove false to you and I will never lie
It'd be hard, my love, for the comin' months
They'll take a long time to go by
They'll take a long time to go by
[Verse 4]
The night is as black as coal and my heart is blue
If I ever prove false to you
I will bid this world adieu
I will bid this world adieu
[Verse 5]
I shouldn't tell this story, I just can't deny
That the woman standin' before me
Can make any man go wild
Can make any man go wild
[Verse 6]
My story is over, I just couldn't be true
So I'll make my stand on top of the hill
And I will bid this world adieu
I will bid this world adieu
