Bound For South Australia

In South Australia I was born

Heave away. Haul away!

South Australia round Cape Horn

And we're bound for South Australia

Haul away you rolling king

Heave away! Haul away!

All the way you'll hear me sing

And we're bound for South Australia

As I walked out one morning fair

Heave away! Haul away!

It's there I met Miss Nancy Blair

And we're bound for South Australia

Haul away you rolling king

Heave away! Haul away!

All the way you'll hear me sing

And we're bound for South Australia

I run her all night I run her all day

Heave away! Haul away!

Run her before we sailed away

And we're bound for South Australia

Haul away you rolling king

Heave away! Haul away!

All the way you'll hear me sing

And we're bound for South Australia

I shook her up I shook her down

Heave away! Haul away!

I shook her round and round and round

And we're bound for South Australia

Haul away you rolling king

Heave away! Haul away!

All the way you'll hear me sing

And we're bound for South Australia

There ain't but one thing that grieves my mind

Heave away! Haul away!

It's leaving Nancy Blair behind

And we're bound for South Australia

Haul away you rolling king

Heave away! Haul away!

All the way you'll hear me sing

And we're bound for South Australia

And as you wollop round Cape Horn

Heave away! Haul away!

You'll wish that you had never been born

And we're bound for South Australia

Haul away you rolling king

Heave away! Haul away!

All the way you'll hear me sing

And we're bound for South Australia

I wish I was on Australia's strand

Heave away! Haul away!

With a bottle of whiskey in my hand

And we're bound for South Australia

Haul away you rolling king

Heave away! Haul away!

All the way you'll hear me sing

And we're bound for South Australia
