Farewell to Prince's Landing Stage
E
River Mersey, fare thee well
A D A
I am bound for California,
E A
A place I know right well
(coro)
E D A
So fare thee well, my own true love
E
For when I return, united we will be
A D A
It's not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me
E A
But my darling when I think of thee
I'm bound off for California
By the way of stormy Cape Horn
And I'm bound to write you a letter, love
When I am homeward bound
(coro)
I have signed on a Yankee clipper ship
Davy Crockett is her name
And Burgess is the Captain of her
And they that say she's a floating shame
(coro)
I have shipped 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 Hell
(coro)
Farewell to lower Frederick Street
Ensign Terrace and Park Lane
For I think it will be a long, long time
Before I see you again
