At the harbour, at the dockside, with a bundle under your arm
Fare thee well, fare thee well, fare thee well
I trust and I pray that you’ll come to no harm
Fare thee well, fare thee well, fare thee well
Chorus
Away, away, you’re going away
May the sun smile upon you, may God keep you safe
At the station, at the track-side, with a bundle at your feet
Fare thee well, fare thee well, fare thee well
I trust and I pray your journey be sweet
Fare thee well, fare thee well, fare thee well
chorus
On the mountain, at the trail-side, with a bundle on your back
Fare thee well, fare thee well, fare thee well
I trust and I pray for the day you come back
Fare thee well, fare thee well, fare thee well
chorus
