Leaving Of Liverpool Lyrics & Chords By Amadan

Farewell thee well, to Princes' landing stage
Mersey River, 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 darlin' when I think of thee

I boarded the yankee's sailin' ship, "Davy Crockett" is her name
And Burgess is the captain of her,
And they say that she's a floating hell
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 darlin' when I think of thee

The ship is in the harbor, love
And I wish 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 darlin' when I think of thee
