BOUND TO GO

Words and Music: Ian McCalman

 

	Bound to go bound to go
	So farewell good people we're all bound to go

We are three lowland travellers and now we must away
It's hello and goodbye are the words we mostly say
We might see you in the autumn when the leaves are falling low
So farewell good people we're all bound to go

The road we've come was long and hard from coast to foreign coast
It's hello and goodbye are the words we've used the most
We might see you in the spring-time when the ice will melt to flow
So farewell good people we're all bound to go

We've drunk and sung and slept a bit, our laughs have come and gone
It's hello and goodbye is the old familiar song
We might see you in the winter driving through the rain and snow
So farewell good people we're all bound to go

And when travellin' days are over and the salt hangs on us all
It's hello and goodbye are the words that we'll recall
And we'll give a thought to a thousand friends and a few we came to know
So farewell good people we're all bound to go
