Farewell to Prince's Landing Stage, River Mersey - Fare thee well. I am bound for California, A place that I know right well. So fare thee well my own true love; When I return united we shall be. It's not the leaving of Liverpool that's grieving me, But darling when I think of thee. I am bound for California By way of stormy Cape Horn, And I'm bound to write you a letter love, When I am homeward bound. I have signed on a yankee clipper ship, Davy Crockett is her name, And Burgess he is the captain of her, And they say she is a floating hell. have shipped with Burgess once before And I think I know him well: If a man's a sailor he can get along, If not, then he's sure in hell. Farewell to Lower Frederick's Street, Ensign Terrace and Park Lane; For I think it will be a long, long time Before I see you again. Oh the sun is on the harbour love And I wish I could remain, For I know it will be a long, long time Before I see you again. I´ll be your long haired lover from Liverpool And I´ll do anything you say I´ll be your clown or your puppet or your April Fool If you´ll be my sunshine daisy from L.A I´ll be your leprechaun and sit upon an old toadstool I´ll serenade you till I´m old and gray I´ll be your long haired lover from Liverpool You´ll be my sunshine daisy from L.A (You´ll be my lovely daisy on the mountainside) (There are lots of other flowers, too) But all the other flowers hung their heads and cried Because the loveliest of all them was you (But you were evidently the exception to the rule) I picked you quickly then I ran away ´Cause I was your long haired lover from Liverpool You were my sunshine daisy from L.A I´ll be your long haired lover from Liverpool And I´ll do anything you ask I´ll be your clown or your puppet or your April Fool Cut my hair, I´ll even wear a mask I´ll be your Valentine, and you´ll be mine, and things´ll be cool We´ll move along together every day I´ll be your long haired lover from Liverpool You´ll be my sunshine daisy from L.A You´ll be my sunshine daisy from L.A I´ll be your long haired lover from Liverpool And I´ll do anything you ask I´ll be your clown or your puppet or your April Fool Cut my hair I´ll even wear a mask I´ll be your Valentine, and you´ll be mine, and things´ll be cool We´ll move along together every day I´ll be your long haired lover from Liverpool You´ll be my sunshine daisy from L.A
