*5'
V. Arabella! Arabella! Arabella! Farewell!
Last night when we parted I left you broken-hearted Down by the mill-side.
Who'll you have, love ? Who'll you have, love ? Who'll you have, love ? Farewell!
Go to church, love, Go to church, love, Go to church, love, Farewell!
Come back, love, Come back, love, Come back, love, Farewell!
Shake hands, love, Shake hands, love, Shake hands, love, Farewell!
Take a kiss, love, Take a kiss, love, Take a kiss, love, Farewell!
