Our barque leaves this harbour tomorrow
Across the wide ocean to go
And Katie, a burden of sorrow
It is more than I wish you to know

Fare the well to the green shores of Fogo
Fare thee well Katie, dear true and kind
For where e'er I may be, I'll be true to thee
Since old Fogo I'm leaving behind

Now Katie, give over your sighing
And don't be downhearted for me
It's my fortune I'm after seeking
In a far distant land o'er the sea

There's a dark cloud of sorrow hanging o'er me
There's a precious great weight on my mind
For I know there's one loving me truly
In old Fogo I'm leaving behind
