Spent my life down on the farm All I've got to show is great big arms Not much to see just a house and a barn Told my poor daddy as I waved goodbye Told my poor daddy as I waved goodbye....... CHORUS Fare-thee-well I've gone to live in the Comet Hotel Bums and beatniks and ne'er-do-wells We'll all live together in the Comet Hotel We'll all live together in the Comet Hotel Sold my sickle and my six-legged mule Sold my cows and my milking stool The home folks told me I was a fool But I just said as I waved goodbye Oh I just said as I waved goodbye.......... Repeat Chorus I got a ride about a mile down the road A mother trucker with a heavy load She took me to my new abode Then I told her as I waved goodbye Yes I told her as I waved goodbye........ Repeat Chorus
