Roger Whittaker - Durham Town (The Leavin')

I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
And that leaving's gonna get me down

Back in 1944
I remember Daddy walking out the door
Mama told me he was going to war, he was leaving
Leaving, leaving, leaving, leaving me

Now I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
I've gotta leave ol Durham town
I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
And that leaving's gonna get me down

When I was a boy
I spent my time sitting on the banks of the River Thyme
Watching all the ships going down the line
They were leaving, leaving, leaving, leaving, leaving me

Now I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
And that leaving's gonna get me down

Last week Mama passed away
"Goodbye, son" is all she'd say
"There's no call for me to stay
So I'm leaving, leaving, leaving, leaving, leaving free"

Now I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
And that leaving's gonna get me

I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
I've gotta leave ol' Durham town
And that leaving's gonna get me

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la
