scythian – leaving of liverpool lyrics
fare thee well to you, my own true love
i am sailing far far away
i am bound for california
and i hope that i return someday
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 on a yankee clipper ship
davy crockett is her name
and her captain’s name is burgess
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
oh, the sun is on the harbor, love
and i wish that i could remain
for i know it will be a long long time
before i will 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
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
