Ten Thousand Miles

He's gone away
For to stay a little while
But he's coming back
If he goes ten thousand miles
Oh, who will shoe my foot
And who will glove my hand
And who will kiss my red ruby lips
When he is gone?

Look away, look away
Over yonder

He's gone away
For to stay a little while
But he's coming back
If he goes ten thousand miles
Oh, Mama will shoe my foot
And Papa will glove my hand
And he will kiss my red ruby lips
When he comes back

Look away, look away
Over yonder
