the young dubliners – 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 have sailed with burgess once before, i think i know him well
if a man’s a sailor he will get along, 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
farewell to lower frederick street, anson terrace and park lane
i am bound away for to leave you and i’ll never 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
i am bound for california by way of stormy cape h-rn
and i will write to thee a letter, love, when i am homeward bound
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’ve 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
