Fare thee well to Princes' landing stage
Mersey river fare thee well
I am bound for California a place 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
But my darling when I think of thee
I've boarded on a Yankee sailing ship
Davy 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
But my darling when I think of thee
The ship is in the harbor, love and I wish I could remain
But I know it will be a long long time before I will 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
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
Hey
Oh yeah
