Fare you well, my honey, fare you well my only true one.

All the birds that were singing are flown, except you alone.

Going to leave this brokedown palace,

On my hand and knees, i will roll, roll, roll.

Make myself a bed in the waterside,

In my time, i will roll, roll roll.

In a bed, in a bed, by the waterside i will lay my head.

Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.

River going to take me, sing sweet and sleepy,

Sing me sweet and sleepy all the way back home.

It's a far gone lullaby, sung many years ago.

Mama, mama many worlds I've come since i first left home.

Goin' home, goin' home, by the riverside i will rest my bones,

Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.

Going to plant a weeping willow,

On the bank's green edge it will grow, grow, grow.

Sing a lullaby beside the water,

Lovers come and go, the river roll, roll, roll.

Fare you well, fare you well, i love you more than words can tell,

Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.

One of the original "subjects" in the Army experimentation of LSD, where he met Ken Kesey, the writer and leader of the Merry Pranksters... the rest is history

i'd have to think long and hard about my ranking but i don't think Box is unreasonable in 5th, but definitely not much higher. let phil sing damnit (my sput profile picture highly related)

man, that might be my favorite Dead tune



Box Of Rain, Terrapin Station, Bertha, Jack Straw, and Sugar Magnolia probably round out my top 5

good picks, Terrapin and Bertha would probably be in mine as well. i'll have to make a top 20 GD songs list one of these days



"box of rain comes out guns blazing and then meanders a bit for me"

oh no I like both of those songs, especially "friend of the devil", I meant that "box of rain" itself does that for me
