Performed by The High Kings
Fare thee well to Prince's landing stage River Mersey, fare thee well I am bound for California It's a place that I know right well I have signed 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 shame 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 sailed with Burgess once before He's a man that I know right well If a man's a sailor he will get along If not then he's sure in hell. Now the sun is on the harbour, love And I wish I could remain For I know that it will be a long, long time Before I see you again 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. |
