This song was from The New Christy Minstrels album "Ramblin'" which also contains the hit single "Green, Green" originally released as CS 8855 on Columbia Records in 1963.

I tried everything I could to get the lyrics, however, The New Christy Minstrels themselves refuse to reveal them anywhere.

The melody of this song is similar to that of the Kingston Trio's "The River is Wide" also recorded by the Seekers later in the 1960's. Lyrics to "The River is Wide" are available but not to the "Last Farewell".

Could it be that the "Last Farewell" by The New Christy Minstrels is only a takeoff on "The River is Wide" by the Kingston Trio as the result of no lyrics released for the "Last Farewell"?

Very hard to find but here you go:

LAST FAREWELL
(Randy Sparks)

The New Christy Minstrels

I’m go’n way at eve’n tide
Across the wide and the rollin’ sea
I bid you stay stay here by my side
And share a last farewell with me

(guitar bridge)

Through snowclad mountains proud and tall
For a thousand miles ‘cross the burning sand
Our last farewell then will I recall
When I’m alone in a far off land

(hamonica bridge)

A wanderin’ song is all I know
Yet I love more more than words can tell
I hear the call and I’m bound to go
I leave you now with a last farewell
I leave you now with a last farewell
