Dink's Song Lyrics

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

My 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
