Farewell Songtext
von Eric Fish

Farewell my lovely Nancy, ten thousand times adieu
I′m a-going around the ocean wide to seek for something new
Come change you ring with me, dear girl
Come change your ring with me
Let it might be talking of true love when I am on the sea


And when I'm far upon the sea, you know not where I am
Kind letters I will write to you from every foreign land
There′s nothing to protect us, love
Or to keep us from the cold
On the ocean wide where we must fight to keep our golden souls

Farewell my lovely Nancy, ten thousand times adieu
