Old Joe Clark - The Kingston Trio

Fare thee well, old Joe Clark.

Good-bye, Mitzi Brown

Fare thee well, old Joe Clark.

I’m gonna leave this town

Old Joe Clark used to clean the bar.

Liquor was his pay.

Never saved a golden

eagle.

Drank it all away

Fare thee well, old Joe Clark.

Good-bye, Mitzi Brown

Fare thee well, old Joe Clark.

I’m gonna leave this town

I don’t want your old time religion or what you got to say (say) but pass me

down that barley jug and I’ll be on my way.

A singin'

Fare thee well, old Joe Clark.

Good-bye, Mitzi Brown

Fare thee well, old Joe Clark.

I’m gonna leave this town

Old Joe Clark walked downtown backwards.

People asked him, «Why?»

I come back for one more drink while wavin' you good-bye!"

Fare thee well, old Joe Clark.

Good-bye, Mitzi Brown

Fare thee well, old Joe Clark.

I’m gonna leave this town

Fare thee well, old Joe Clark.

I’m gonna leave this town
