THE LEAVING OF LIVERPOOL

Farewell to you my own true love
I am going far away
I am bound for California
And I know that I'll return some day

So fare thee well my own true love
And 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

Oh the sun is on the harbour love
And I wish I could remain
But I know it will be some long time
Before I see you again

So fare thee well my own true love
And 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
