If I had wings like Noah’s dove
I'd fly the river to the one that I love
Fare three well, oh honey fare three well

The woman I love is long and tall
She moves his body like a cannon ball
Fare thee well, oh honey, fare thee well

Early one morning drizzling rain
And in my heart I felt an aching pain
Fare thee well, oh honey, fare thee well

One of these mornings, it won't be long
You'll call my name an I'll be gone
Fare thee well, oh honey, fare thee well

If I had wings like Noah’s dove
I'd fly the river to the one that I love
Fare three well, oh honey fare three well
