    Lyrics
    Fare thee well to Princess Landing Stage, River Mersy, fare thee well
    For I am bound for Californ-eye-ay and I know that I’ll return one day
    Chorus:
    So fare the 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 drink with thee
    I have signed on the Yankee sailing ship, Davy Crockett is her name
    And old Burgess is the captain of her and I swear that she’s a floating shame
    Chorus
    I have sailed with this Burgess once before and I think that I know him right well
    If a man is a sailor he can get along, but if not, he’s in a floating hell
    Chorus
    And now the sun, it’s on the harbor, love, and my heart is filled with pain
    For I know that it will be such a long, long time, before I drink with you again
    Chorus
