Fare Thee Well Northumberland |
Come drive me down to the central station |
I hate to leave my river Tyne |
For some dawn town that’s God-forsaken |
Fare thee well, Northumberland |
Although I’ll go where the lady takes me She’ll never tell what’s in her hand |
I do not know what fate awaits me Fare thee well, Northumberland |
My heart beats for my streets and alley |
Longs to Dwell in the borderlands |
The North-East shore and the river valleys |
Fare thee well Northumberland |
I may not stay, I’m bound for leaving |
I’m bound to ramble and to roam |
I only say my heart is grieving |
I would not gamble on my coming home |
Roll on, Geordie boy, roll |
Roll on, Geordie boy, roll |
Roll on, Geordie boy, roll |
Roll on, Geordie boy, roll |
So drive me down to the central station |
I hate to leave my river Tyne |
For some dawn town that’s God-forsaken |
Goodbye old friend of mine |
Although I’ll go where the lady takes me She’ll never tell what’s in her hand |
I do not know what fate awaits me Fare thee well, Northumberland |
So roll on, Geordie boy, roll |
Roll on, Geordie boy, roll |
Roll on, Geordie boy, roll |
Roll on, Geordie boy, roll |
