THE LEAVING OF LIVERPOOL
(trad./The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem)

Farewell to you, my own true love;
I am going far away.
I am bound for California,
But I know that I'll return some day.

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.

I have shipped on a Yankee sailing ship;
"Davy Crockett" is her name.
And Burgess is the captain of her,
And they say she is a floating hell.

Oh, the sun is on the harbour, love,
And I wish I could remain,
For I know it will be some long time
Before I see you again.
