Dink's Song

If I had wings

Like Noah’s Dove

I’d fly the river

To the one I love

Fare thee well, my honey

Fare thee well

I had a man

Who was long and tall

Moved his body

Like a cannonball

Fare thee well, my honey

Fare thee well

‘Member one evening

Was drizzling rain

And ‘round my heart

I felt an aching pain

Fare thee well, my honey

Fare thee well

Once I wore

My apron low

Couldn’t keep you

Away from my door

Fare thee well, my honey

Fare thee well

Now my apron

Is up to my chin

You pass my door

But you never come in

Fare thee well, my honey

Fare thee well

Oh, mighty river

Runs muddy and wild

Can’t care the bloody

For my unborn child

Fare thee well, my honey

Fare thee well

Number 9 train

Won’t do no harm

Number 9 train

Take my poor baby home

Fare thee well, my honey

Fare thee well

Fastest man

I ever saw

Skipped Missouri

On the way to Arkansas

Fare thee well, my honey

Fare thee well
