luke kelly – the leaving of liverpool lyrics
farewell to princes’ landing stage
river mersey fare thee well
i am bound for california
a place i know right well
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 am bound for california
by way of the stormy cape h+rn
and i’ll write to you a letter, love
when i am homeward bound
so fare thee well my own true love
when i return united wе will be
it’s not the leaving of livеrpool that grieves me
but my darling when i think of thee
i have shipped on a yankee clipper ship
“davy crockett” is her name
and burgess is the captain of her
and they say that she’s a floating h+ll
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 been with burgess once before
and i think i know him well
if a man is a seaman he can get along
but if not then he’s sure in h+ll
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 am bound away to leave you
goodbye my love farewell
for i know it will be some long time
before i see you again
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
farewell to lower frederick street
anson terrace and park lane
for i know it will be some long time
before i see you again
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
