Oh, fare thee well to you, my own true love
I am going far away
I am bound for California,
But I know that I'll return someday.

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.

I sail on a Yankee sailing ship.
"David Crockett" is her name,
And Burgess is the captain of her
And they say that she's a floating hell.

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 now,
And I wish I could remain,
But I know it'll be a 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.
