If I had me some magic shoes
I'd walk away and I'd leave the blues
farewell my darling
oh my darling, farewell
a train pullled in and she got on
the whistle luew and my girl was gone
farewell my darling
oh my darling, farewell

If I had wings like noah's doves
I'd fly away and I'd finy my love
farewell my darling
oh my darling, farewell

man may take and man may give
he needs love to really love
farewell, farewell my darling
oh my darling, farewell
