- Farewell the Princes landing stage
River Mersey fare thee well
I am bound for Californiay
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 am bound for California,
By way of stormy Cape Horn
And I will send thee a letter love,
When I am homeward bound.
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.
- Farewell to Lower Frederick Street
Anson Terrace and Park Lane
And it will be a long, long time
'Til I 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 darling when I think of thee.
- I've shipped aboarda yankee ship
Davy Crockett is her name
And Burgess is the captain o'er her,
And they say she's a floating shame
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 shipped with Burgess once before
And I think I know him right well,
If a man's a sailor he can get along
But if not then his life is 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 darling when I think of thee.
- A tug is waiting at the pier
To take us down the stream.
Our sails are set and the anchor is up
And I'll say farewell once more.
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.
