Rock Your Soul

The liner is waiting and once again I'm leaving 
  For a far off land where I'll constantly be grieving 
  But not for the sake of the absentee mountain 
  But for the sake of that girl I met by the fountain 

  So fare thee well, so long my own true love 

  As time goes by, the faithless days grow longer 
  As the nights slowly pass, my ache for thee grows stronger 
  Stronger than the black winds on the dark and raging main 
  Stronger than the whiskey I drink for to ease my pain 

  So fare thee well, so long my own true love 

  I've been wounded and worn out and both my knees have been broken 
  I've been shot at and beaten but not a word of complaint I have spoken 
  For there's nothing that hurts like the sufferin' of being away from thee 
  When thou are on the mountain and I'm on the dark rolling sea 

  So fare thee well, so long my own true love
