| The Leaving Of Liverpool Trad. 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 shipped on board a Yankee sailing ship Davy Crockett is her name And Burgess is the captain of hers And they say that she's a floating Hell Oh the ship is in the harbour, love And I wish I could remain For I know it will be a long, long time Before I see you again A heart moving song from The Beatle City & one of my favorite Folk Songs. |
