[Verse 1]
Farewell to Princes' landing stage
River Mersey fare thee well
I am bound for California
A place that I know right well
I’m bound on a Yankee sailing ship
Davy Crockett is her name
And Burgess is the captain of her
And they say she is a floating shame
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
I have sailed with Burgess once before
And I think that I know him well
If a man's a sailor he’ll get along
But if not then he'd sure be in hell
Oh the sun is on the harbour, love
And I wish that I could remain
For I know it will be a long, long time
Before I see you again
Farewell to Princes' landing stage
River Mersey fare thee well
I am bound for California
A place that I know right well
I’m bound on a Yankee sailing ship
Davy Crockett is her name
And Burgess is the captain of her
And they say she is a floating shame
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
I have sailed with Burgess once before
And I think that I know him well
If a man's a sailor he’ll get along
But if not then he'd sure be in hell
Oh the sun is on the harbour, love
And I wish that I could remain
For I know it will be a long, long time
Before I see you again
