pogues - the leaving of liverpool lyrics
farewell to you, my own true love
i am going far, far away
i am bound for california
and i know that i’ll return someday
so fare thee well, my own true love
for 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 shipped on a yankee sailing ship
davy crockett is her name
and her captain’s name was burgess
and they say that she’s a floating h-ll
so fare thee well, my own true love
for 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
oh, the sun is on the harbor, love
and i wish that i could remain
for i know that it will be a long, long time
before i see you again
so fare thee well, my own true love
for 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
