Fare Thee Well Harry Belafonte

If I had wings
Like Noah's dove
I'd fly up the river
Just to see the woman that I love

Fare you well, oh my honey
I say, "Fare you well"

When I woke up this mornin'
It was drizzlin' rain
All around my heart
Well there was an ache and pain

Fare you well, oh my honey
I say, "Fare you well"

Now when you wore
Your apron low
You couldn't keep me
No you couldn't keep me from around your door

Fare you well, oh my honey
I say, "Fare you well"

And now you wear
Your apron high
You say you never
No you never, you scarcely ever see me passin' by
