Sailed away from the old North Wall
Travelling feet gave me the call
Leaving, a suitcase in my hand
With the price of a pint, didn't need a bite
There was good old craic on the boat that night
As we left our homes in Ireland

And the lights they flickered from the shore
The boat was rockin' to and fro
Heading for the docks in Liverpool
Oh, we sang and danced the night away
The squeeze box and the fiddle played
Steppin' off the boat in Liverpool

Rise up at the crack of dawn
Working hard the whole week long
Night-time I'd play me old guitar
And we sang together one and all
Side by side and standing tall
The craic was good down in the Liffey bar

The lights they flickered from the shore
The pub was rockin' to and fro
Down beside the docks of Liverpool
Ah, we sang and danced the night away
The squeeze box and the fiddle played
Steppin' out at night in Liverpool

Ah play it boys, hey

Now that was many years ago
Good fortune came I'll have you know
Leavin' that old suitcase in my hand
And the time has come to bid adieu
To me good old pals in Liverpool
Tomorrow I'll be back in Ireland

The lights they flickered from the shore
The boat was rockin' to and fro
Heading from the docks of Liverpool
Ah, we sang and danced the night away
The squeeze box and the fiddle played
Steppin' off the boat from Liverpool

Ah, we're steppin' off the boat from Liverpool, ooh, hey
