Lyrics:

My horses ain't hungry,
They won't eat your hay
So fare thee well darling,
I'm going away

Your parents don't like me
They say I'm too poor
They say I'm unworthy
To enter your door

Pretty Mary, pretty Mary,
Would you think me unkind?
If I were to see you
And tell you my mind?

My horses ain't hungry,
They won't eat your hay
So fare thee well darling,
I'm going away

As sure as the dewdrops
Fall on that green corn
Tonight I'll be with you,
Tomorrow I'm gone

My horses ain't hungry,
They won't eat your hay
So fare thee well darling,
I'm going away.

So fare thee well darling,
I'm going away.
