Three years ago, when our son caught the last train for the coast & went 3,000 miles away to college, we put a bit of "The Leaving of Liverpool" on our voicemail greeting -- "I am bound for Califor-nye-ay, but I know that I'll return some day -- so fare thee well, my own true love....", etc.

Then there's "The Enniskillen Dragoons", with the chorus

Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for a while
And all around the borders of Erin's green isle;
And when the war is over we'll return in full bloom
And you'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons.
