Pete Seeger - Fare You Well Polly (Wagoner’s Land) lyrics
[Pete Seeger - Fare You Well Polly Wagoner’s Land lyrics]
My horses ain't hungry
They won't eat your hay
So fare you well Polly i'm going away
Your parents don't like me
They say I'm too poor
They say I'm not worthy to enter your door
My parents don't like you
You're poor I am told
But it's your love I'm wanting
Not silver or gold then come with me Polly
We'll ride till we come
To some little cabin we'll call it our home
Oh, sparking is pleasure
And parting is grief
And a false hearted lover
Is worse than a thief
They'll hug you, they'll kiss you
They'll tell you more lies
Than cross-ties on a railroad
Or star s in the sky
They won't eat your hay
So fare you well Polly i'm going away
Your parents don't like me
They say I'm too poor
They say I'm not worthy to enter your door
My parents don't like you
You're poor I am told
But it's your love I'm wanting
Not silver or gold then come with me Polly
We'll ride till we come
To some little cabin we'll call it our home
Oh, sparking is pleasure
And parting is grief
And a false hearted lover
Is worse than a thief
They'll hug you, they'll kiss you
They'll tell you more lies
Than cross-ties on a railroad
Or star s in the sky
