O fare ye weel, my auld wife!
Sing bum bibery bum,

Nae mair wi' you my wife I'll baff,

O Fare You Well My Old Wife
O fare you well, my old wife!
Sing bum bibery bum,
O fare you well, my old wife!
Sing bum.
O fare you well, my old wife!
The stirrer up on trouble and strife,
The malt is above the meal the night
With some.
And fare you well, my pick-staff,
Sing bum bibery bum,
And fare you well, my pick-staff,
Sing bum.
And fare you well, my pick-staff,
No more with you my wife I will strike,
The malt is above the meal the night
With some.
