I was a sailor first
I sailed the sea
Then I got a job
In a factory
Played Butlins camp
With my friend Rory It was good for him It was great for me
CHORUS:
Liverpool I left you
Said goodbye to Madryn Street
I always followed my heart
And I never missed a beat
Destiny was calling
I just couldn’t stick around
Liverpool I left you
But I never let you down
Went to Hamburg
The red lights were on
With George and Paul
And my friend John
We rocked all night
We all looked up
We didn’t have much
But we had enough
