Artist/Band: The High Kings
Lyrics for Song: Leaving Of Liverpool
Lyrics for Album: Memory Lane [2011]



Farewell to Prince's Landing Stage

River Mersey, fare thee well

I am bound for California

It's a place that I know right well



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



I have signed on a Yankee Clipper ship

Davy Crockett is her name

And Burgess is the Captain of her

And they say she's a floating shame

Chorus:



I have sailed with Burgess once before

And hes a man I know right well

If a man is a sailor, he can get along

And if nothin' he is sure in Hell

Chorus:



Now the sun is on the harbour, love

And I wish I could remain

For I know it will be a long, long time

Before I see you again

Chorus: (x2)
