• The Leaving Of Liverpool

Farewell to Prince's Landing Stage,
River Mersey - Fare thee well.
I am bound for California,
A place that I know right well.

Chorus:

So fare thee well my own true love;
When I return united we shall be.
It's not the leaving of Liverpool that's grieving me,
But darling when I think of thee.

I am bound for Calafornia
By way of stormy Cape Horn,
And I'm bound to write you a letter love,
When I am homeward bound.

Repeat Chorus

I have signed on a yankee clipper ship,
Davy Crockett is her name,
And Burgess he is the captain of her,
And they say she is a floating hell.

Repeat Chorus

I have shipped with Burgess once before
And I think I know him well:
If a man's a sailor he can get along,
If not, then he's sure in hell.

Repeat Chorus

Farewell to Lower Frederick's Street,
Ensign Terrace and Park Lane;
For I think it will be a long, long time
Before I see you again.

Repeat Chorus

Oh the sun is on the harbour love
And I wish I could remain,
For I know it will be a long, long time
Before I see you again.

Repeat Chorus
