Well, I wish I was back in Liverpool, Liverpool town where I was born

Where there ain’t no trees, no scented breeze, no fields of waving corn

But there’s plenty of girls with peroxide curls, and the black and tan flows free

There’s six in a bed by the old pier heard, and it’s Liverpool town for me

‘Tis seven long years since I wandered away to sail the wide world o’er

Me very first trip on an old steam ship that was bound for Baltimore

I was seven days sick and I just couldn’t stick that bobbing up and down

So I told them, Jack, you’d better turn back for dear old Liverpool town

Well, I wish I was back in Liverpool, Liverpool town where I was born

Where there ain’t no trees, no scented breeze, no fields of waving corn

But there’s lots of girls with peroxide curls, and the black and tan flows free

There’s six in a bed by the old pier heard, and it’s Liverpool town for me

We dug the Mersey tunnel, boys, way back in ‘33

Dug a hole in the ground until we found a hole called “Wallasey”

Then the foreman cried, “Come on outside, the roof is falling down.”

Well, I’m telling you, Jack, we all swam back to dear old Liverpool town

Well, I wish I was back in Liverpool, Liverpool town where I was born

Where there ain’t no trees, no scented breeze, no fields of waving corn

But there’s lots of girls with peroxide curls, and the black and tan flows free

There’s six in a bed by the old pier heard, and it’s Liverpool town for me

There’s every race and colour of face, there’s every kind of name

But the pigeons on the pier head, well, they treat yiz all the same

And if you walk up Upper Parliament Street, you’ll get faces black and brown

And I’ve also seen them orange and green in dear old Liverpool town

Well, I wish I was back in Liverpool, Liverpool town where I was born

Where there ain’t no trees, no scented breeze, no fields of waving corn

But there’s plenty of girls with their natural curls, and the black and tan flows free

There’s six in a bed by the old pier heard, and it’s Liverpool town for me
