Ives, Burl - Away Rio Lyrics
Oh, the anchor is weighed, and the sails they are set
'Way, you Rio
The girls that we're leaving we'll never forget
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
And away, you Rio! 'Way, you Rio
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
So goodbye to the ladies we know in this town:
'Way, you Rio
We've left you enough to buy a silk gown
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
And away, you Rio! 'Way, you Rio
We've left you enough to buy a silk gown
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
'Way, you Rio
A brass-knuckled mate and a rough skipper, too
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
And away, you Rio! 'Way, you Rio
A brass-knuckled mate and a rough skipper, too
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
We'll sell all our salt cod, molasses and rum
'Way, you Rio
And get home again 'fore Thanksgiving has come
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
And away, you Rio! 'Way, you Rio
And get home again 'fore Thanksgiving has come
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
Sing goodbye to Elsie and goodbye to Sue
'Way, you Rio
And you who are listening, goodbye to you
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
And away, you Rio! 'Way, you Rio
And you who are listening, goodbye to you
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
Our good ship's a-goin' out over the bar:
'Way, you Rio
We'll point her nose for the southern star
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
And away, you Rio! 'Way, you Rio
We'll point her nose for the southern star
For we're bound to the Rio Grande
