A Distant Land To Roam |
| I remember very well |
| On one dark and dreary day |
| Just as I was leaving home |
| For a distant land to roam |
| Mother said (mother said) |
| My dear boy (my dear boy) |
| I hope I’ll see you next year again |
| Fare you well (fare you well) |
| Fare you well (fare you well) |
| So I left my dear old home |
| For a distant land to roam |
| Now I wandered far away |
| From my home I’ve gone astray |
| Now I’m coming, coming home |
| Never more from thee to roam |
| Mother said (mother said) |
| My dear boy (my dear boy) |
| I hope I’ll see you next year again |
| Fare you well (fare you well) |
| Fare you well (fare you well) |
| So I left my dear old home |
| For a distant land to roam |
| Now these words she said to me |
| As she took me by the hand |
| If on earth we meet no more |
| May we meet at God’s right hand |
| Mother said (mother said) |
| My dear boy (my dear boy) |
| I hope I’ll see you next year again |
| Fare you well (fare you well) |
| Fare you well (fare you well) |
| So I left my dear old home |
| For a distant land to roam |
