Good morning, loving Nancy We have met in due time I will ask you a question I hope it's no crime Come and sit yourself by me What time you do stay So fare-you-well Nancy I am going away Go put up your horses and food And fetch some hay So fare-you-well Nancy I'll drive on my way Your wagon to grease And your bills is to pay Some come sit down by my side So long as you stay My wagon is well greased My whip is in my hand So fare-you-well Nancy I'm leaving this land So where was I next morning So soon as I arise A-crossing deep waters With tears in my eyes To think I must leave her To see her no more I left her grieving On the new river shore Somes says I am rude Some says I am rough Some says I am guilty Of many bad crimes I can prove them all liars By the power above I am guilty of nothing But I innocently love My papa don't like me And this I well know He says I'm not worthy To step in his door
