Farewell to Princes' landing stage, River Mersey fare thee well
Farewell to Princes' landing stage, River Mersey fare thee well
I am bound for California, a place I know right well
I am bound for California, a place I know right well
Line 29: Line 28:
When I return united we will be,
When I return united we will be,
It's not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me,  
It's not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me,  
But my darling when I think of thee.
But my darling when I think of thee.}}

Farewell to Princes' landing stage, River Mersey fare thee well
I am bound for California, a place I know right well

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.
