leaving of liverpool - shane macgowan lyrics

Loading...

farewell to you, my own true love
there were many fare thee wells
i am bound for california
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’s grieves me
but my darling when i think of thee

i have signed on a yankee clipper ship
davy crockett is her name
and the captain’s name is burgess
and they say that she’s a floating h-ll

i have sailed with burgess once before
and i think i know him well
if a man’s a sailor, he can get along
if not, then he’s sure in h-ll

oh the ship is in the harbour, love
and i wish i could remain
for i know it will be a long, long time
before i see you again
