The Leaving of Liverpool

Traditional

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 1]
Fare thee well to Princess Landing Stage
River Mersey, fare thee well
I am bound for California
A place that I know right well

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
Oh I'm bound to California
By way of stormy Cape Horn
And I'll write to you a letter, love
When I am homeward bound

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
I am bound on a Yankee clipper ship
Davy Crockett is her name
And the captain's name is Burgess
And they say she's a floatin' hell

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 4]
So farewell to Lower Frederick Street
Anson Terrace, and Park Lane
I think it will be a long, long time
Before I see you again

[Chorus]
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

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Chorus]
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
But my darling, when I think of thee
