The Tavern Song |
There is a tavern in the town, |
That’s where my true love sits her down, |
And drinks her wine 'mid laughter free, |
And never, never thinks of me. |
Chorus: |
Adieu, adieu, kind friends adieu, |
We can no longer stay with you, |
We must hang our harps on a weeping willow tree, |
And may the world go well with thee. |
Fare thee well, for we must leave you, |
Do not let our parting grieve you, |
For remember that the best of friends |
Must part, part, part |
So until amother meeting |
When we’ll wave a friendly greeting |
We will keep your memory in our hearts. |
--- Instrumental |
Oh, dig my grave both wide and deep |
With tombstones at my head and feet |
And above my head you can carve a turtle dove |
To signify I died of love. |
Chorus: |
Adieu, adieu, kind friends adieu, |
We can no longer stay with you, |
We must hang our harps on a weeping willow tree, |
And may the world go well with thee. |
Fare thee well, for we must leave you, |
Do not let our parting grieve you, |
For remember that the best of friends |
Must part, part, part |
So until amother meeting |
When we’ll wave a friendly greeting |
We will keep your memory in our hearts. |
