South Australia

<Heave away you rolling kings, heave away, haul away

Heave away, you'll hear me sing, we're bound for South Australia>

In South Australia I was born, heave away, haul away

In South Australia, 'round Cape Horn, we're bound for South Australia

<...>

As I walked out one morning fair, <heave away, haul away>

'Twas there I met Miss Nancy Blair, <we're bound for South Australia>

<...>

I shook her up, I shook her down, <heave away, haul away>

I shook her round and round the town, <we're bound for South Australia>

<...>

There's ain't but one thing grieves my mind, <heave away, haul away>

That's leaving Nancy Blair behind, <we're bound for South Australia>

<...>

And as we wallop round Cape Horn, <heave away, haul away>

You'll wish to Christ you've never been born, <we're bound for South Australia>

<...>

And now I'm on some foreign strand, <heave away, haul away>

A bottle of whiskey in each hand, <we're bound for South Australia>
