  1. Farewell! Coole West within my breast
    My love is there for you.
    To your valleys fair & mountains rare
    I now must bid adieu
    Beneath Columbus starry skies
    My weary head I'll rest
    My longing eyes no more behold
    You lovely Sweet Coole West
    I see the morning's silvery dawn
    Right up the eastern sky
    Which tells me that the hour has come
    When I must say Good bye.
