tommy makem - leaving of liverpool lyrics

Loading...

farewell to you my own true love
i am going far away
i am bound for california
but i know that i’ll return some day
chorus:
so fare thee well, my own true love
and 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 sailing ship
davy crockett is her name
and burgess is the captain of her
and they say she is a floating shame
i have sailed with burgess once before
and i think i know him right well
if a man is a sailor, he can get along
but if not than he’s surely in h-ll
oh, the fog is on the harbour love
and i wish i could remain
but i know it will be some long time
before i see you again
