- Verse:
- There Is A Tavern In The
Town, in the town.
- And there my true love sits
him down, sits him down.
- And drinks his wine 'mid
laughter gay and free,
- But never, never thinks
of me.
-
- Verse:
- Fare the well for I must
leave thee, do not let the parting grieve thee,
- And remember that the best
of friends must part, must part.
- Adieu, adieu kind friends
adieu, adieu, adieu.
- I can no longer stay with
you, stay with you.
- And I will hang my harp
on a weeping willow tree,
- And may the world go well
with thee.
