The Leaving of Liverpool

from The Quarantine Sessions by Grass Mud Horse

lyrics

Fare thee well Princes landing stage
River Mersey fare thee well
Fore I am bound for California
A land that 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
It's my darling when I think of thee

Oh and I'm aboard a Yankee clipper ship
Davey Crockett is her name
And Burgess is the Captain of her
And they say that she's a floating 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
It's my darling when I think of thee

Oh I've sailed with Burgess twice before
And I think I know him well
If a mans a sailor then he'll get along
If he's not then he's sure in hell

So fare thee well my own true love
When I return united we will be
We will be
It's not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me
It's my darling when I think of thee

So fare thee well my own true love
When I return united we will be
We will be
It's not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me
It's my darling when I think of thee
