There is a tavern in the town, in the town
And there my dear love sits him down, sits him down
And drinks his wine ' mid laughter free
And never, never thinks of me
Fare thee well, for I must leave thee
Do not let this parting grieve thee
And remember that best of friends must part,must part
Adieu, adieu, kind friends, adieu, adieu, adieu
I can no longer stay with you, stay with you
I'll hang my harp on a weeping willow tree
And may the world go well with thee

He left me for a damsel dark, damsel dark
Each Friday night they used to spark, used to spark
And now my love once true to me
takes that dark damsel on his knee
Fare thee well, for I must leave thee
Do not let this parting grieve thee
And remember that best of friends must part,must part
Adieu, adieu, kind friends, adieu, adieu, adieu
I can no longer stay with you, stay with you
I'll hang my harp on a weeping willow tree
And may the world go well with thee
