There Is a Tavern In the Town Lyrics
There Is a Tavern In the Town - Gracie Fields
There is a tavern in the town in the town
And there my true love sits him down sits him down
And drinks his wine as merry as can be
And never never thinks of me
Fare thee well for I must leave thee
Do not let this parting grieve thee
For the time has come for you
And I would say do not
Adieu adieu adieu adieu kind friends yes adieu
I can no longer stay with you stay with you
I'll hang my harp on the weeping willow tree
May the world may the world
May the world may the world
He left me for a damsel dark damsel dark
Each Friday night they used to spark
Used to spark
And now my love who once was true to me
Takes this dark damsel on his knee
Fare thee well for I must leave thee
Do not let this parting grieve thee
You for the time has come for you
And I don't say good bye
Adieu adieu adieu adieu kind friends yes adieu
I can no longer stay with you stay with you
I'll hang my harp on the weeping willow tree
May the world may the world
May the world may the world
Oh dig my grave both wide and deep wide and deep
Put tombstones at my head and feet head and feet
And on my breast carve a turtle dove
To signify I died of love
Fare thee well for I must leave thee
Do not let this parting grieve thee
You for the time has come for you
And I will say good bye
Adieu adieu kind friends adieu
I can no longer stay with you stay with you
I'll hang my harp on the weeping willow tree
May the world may the world
May the world common everybody
May the world
Fare thee well for I must leave thee
Do not let this parting grieve thee
You for the time has come for you
And I will say good bye
And let me do
Adieu adieu adieu yes adieu
I can no longer stay with you stay with you
I'll hang my harp on the weeping willow tree
May the world may the world
May the world
