The Grateful Dead - Brokedown Palace lyrics
[The Grateful Dead - Brokedown Palace lyrics]
Fare you well, my honey
Fare you well, my only true one
All the birds that were singing
Have flown except you alone
Goin' to leave this brokedown palace
On my hands and my knees, I will roll, roll
Roll make myself a bed by the waterside
In my time - in my time - I will roll
Roll roll
In a bed, in a bed
By the waterside I will lay my head
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
To rock my soul
River gonna take me sing me sweet and sleepy
Sing me sweet and sleepy
All the way back home
It's a far-gone lullaby sung many years ago
Mama, Mama many worlds I've come
Since I first left home
Going home, going home
By the water-side 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
In a bed, in a bed
By the waterside I will lay my head
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
Fare you well, my only true one
All the birds that were singing
Have flown except you alone
Goin' to leave this brokedown palace
On my hands and my knees, I will roll, roll
Roll make myself a bed by the waterside
In my time - in my time - I will roll
Roll roll
In a bed, in a bed
By the waterside I will lay my head
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
To rock my soul
River gonna take me sing me sweet and sleepy
Sing me sweet and sleepy
All the way back home
It's a far-gone lullaby sung many years ago
Mama, Mama many worlds I've come
Since I first left home
Going home, going home
By the water-side 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
In a bed, in a bed
By the waterside I will lay my head
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
