When I was a boy I spent my time
sittin on the banks of the river Tyne
whatchin' all the ships goin down the line, they were leavin
leavin leavin leavin leavin me
***CHORUS
Last week momma passed a-way
"good bye son" is all she'd say
"there,s no call for me to stay so I'm leavin
leavin leavin leavin leavin free

I've gotta leave old Durham Town
