The Leaving Of Liverpool Songtext

Farewell to you, my own true love, I am going far away I am bound for California When I know that I'll return someday. [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 [Chorus] I have sailed on a Yankee sailing ship Davy Crockett is her name And Burgess is the Captain of her And they say that she's a floating Hell Oh the sun is on the harbor, love And I wish I could remain For I know it will be a long, long time Before I see you again
