Fare thee well now, Indiana
Your green land's been good to me
There I've travelled, there I've settled
There I've raised up my family
But the cord has never severed
And our longing each day has grown
So tomorrow I'll be leaving
For the land I call my home
All my friends, they say I'm crazy
Going back to such poverty
Americay is, so they say now
The land of opportunity
But the red deer run so freely
And the heron slowly flies
There are treasures from my homeland
That money cannot buy
And while the ship lies in the harbor
I will look back upon the shore
I feel sadness that I'm leaving
Your green land forevermore
And while the ship lies on the ocean
And each day we're out on the sea
All the dreams I've had for years now
Draw nearer to reality
So fare thee well now, Indiana
Your green land's been good to me
There I've travelled, there I've settled
There I've raised up my family
But the cord has never severed
And our longing each day has grown
So tomorrow I'll be leaving
For the land I call my home
