lirik lagu blackwater boys - leaving of liverpool
farewell to prince’s landing stage
river mersey, fare thee well
i am bound for california
a place 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’s grieving me
but my darling when i think of thee
i’m bound off for california
by the way of stormy cape h-rn
and i’m bound to write you a letter, love
when i am homeward bound
chorus:
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 h-ll

i have shipped with burgess once before
and i think i know him well
if a man’s a seaman, he can get along
if not, then he’s sure in h-ll
chorus:
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
chorus:
oh the sun is on the harbour, love
and i wish i could remain
for i know it will be a long, long time
till i see you again
chorus:
