Goin` Away for to Leave You — текст песни (Kingston Trio)

John Phillips

Chorus:
Well, I`m goin` away for to leave you. Might not come back any more (more, more)
If I never more see your face again, then it`s honey on that far distant, distant shore. Honey on that far distant shore.

Well, now, I`m goin` down to New Orleans, just to ride on the river boat.
Gotta keep bailin` all night long just to keep the darn boat afloat.

(Chorus)

Here is where I was born and raised, where the cold, cold North wind blows.
But I`m goin` back to old Tennessee where my good gal only knows.

(Chorus)

Keep a light in your window. Keep it burnin` bright.
Someday I`m gonna come a-knockin` at your door. Baby, I`ll treat you right.

(Chorus)
