Brokedown Palace

Fare you well, my honey, fare you well my only true one All the birds that were singing are flown, except you alone Going to leave this brokedown palace On my hand and knees, I will roll, roll, roll Make myself a bed in the waterside In my time, I will roll, roll roll Make myself a bed by the waterside I will lay my head Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul River going to take me, sing sweet and sleepy Sing me sweet and sleepy all the way back home Its a far gone lullaby, sung many years ago Mama, mama many worlds I've come since I first left home Goin home, goin home, by the riverside I will rest my bones Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul Going to plant a weeping willow On the banks green edge it will grow, grow, grow Sing a lullaby beside the water Lovers come and go, the river roll, roll, roll Fare you well, fare you well, I love you more than words can tell Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul
