Over the hills, through the mountains and the valleys I will go where I know that they won't find me Fare thee well my little darling Fare thee well, for I am bound To that city up on the horizon Just a little more time to ride before the sun goes down Down the cave, up the creek and through the canyon I will ride on my own without companions Fare thee well my little darling Fare thee well, for I am bound To that city up on the horizon Just a little more time to ride before the sun goes down Pretty soon upon the moon I'll be returning Will that candle in your window still be burning? Fare thee well my little darling Fare thee well, for I am bound To that city up on the horizon Just a little more time to ride before the sun goes down
