Текст песни: I Wish I Were Back In Liverpool + перевод

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

Where there ain’t no trees, no scent of grease, no field’s 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 head and it’s Liverpool town for me

'Tis seven long years since I wandered away to sail the wild 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 bobbin' up and down

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

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

Where there ain’t no trees, no scent of grease, no field’s 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 head and it’s Liverpool town for me

We dug the Mersey tunnel, boys, way back in thirty-three

Dug an hole in the ground until we found an hold called Wallasey

Then the foreman cried «Come on, outside! The roof is fallin' down»

While I’m tellin' you, Jack, we all swum back to dear old Liverpool town

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

Where there ain’t no trees, no scent of grease, no field’s 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 head 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 they treat you all the same

And if you walk up upon Parlament Street you’ll get faces black and brown

And I’ve also seen the orange-green in dear old Liverpool town

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

Where there ain’t no trees, no scent of grease, no fiel’s 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 head and it’s Liverpool town for me
