(Chorus) Away-o Away-o Away-o On you go A wrinkle in my sail I know that air ain't free Billy took out his needle and thread And said these words to me: (Chorus) A new face in my bed Fulfilled a vacancy Outstretched arms that touched my soul And made sweet love to me. (Chorus) My dog, he died a year ago Right by his burial place I knelt down; an old greyhound He came and licked my face.
