The Tavern Song

The Tavern Song - The Brothers Four (四兄弟)

There is a tavern in the town

That's where my true love sits her down

And drinks her wine 'mid laughter free

And never never thinks of me

Adieu adieu kind friends adieu

We can no longer stay with you

We must hang our harps on a weeping willow tree

And may the world go well with thee

Fare thee well for we must leave you

Do not let our parting grieve you

For remember that the best of friends

Must part Must part

So until amother meeting

When we'll wave a friendly greeting

We will keep your memory in our hearts

Oh dig my grave both wide and deep

With tombstones at my head and feet

And above my head you can carve a turtle dove

To signify I died of love

Adieu adieu kind friends adieu

We can no longer stay with you

We must hang our harps on a weeping willow tree

And may the world go well with thee

Fare thee well for we must leave you

Do not let our parting grieve you

For remember that the best of friends

Must part Must part

So until amother meeting

When we'll wave a friendly greeting

We will always keep your memory in our hearts
