high kings – leaving of liverpool lyrics
Loading...
farewell to prince’s landing stage
river mersey, fare thee well
i am bound for california
it’s a place that i know right well
chorus:
so fare thee well, my own true love
when i return united we will be
it’s not the leaving of liverpool that grieves me
but my darling when i think of thee
i have signed on a yankee clipper ship
davy crockett is her name
and burgess is the captain of her
and they say she’s a floating shame
chorus:
i have sailed with burgess once before
and hes a man i know right well
if a man is a sailor, he can get along
and if nothin’ he is sure in h-ll
chorus:
now 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
chorus: (x2)
