In South Australia I was born
Heave away, Haul away
In South Australia round Cape Horn
We're bound for South Australia
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, Haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
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
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, Haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia
I shook her up and I shook her down
Heave away, Haul away
I shook her round and round the town
We're bound for South Australia
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, Haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia
There ain't but one thing grieves me mind
Heave away, Haul away
To leave Miss Nancy Blair behind
We're bound for South Australia
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, Haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia
I wish I was on some lonesome strand
Heave away, Haul away
With a bottle of whiskey in my hand
We're bound for South Australia
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, Haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia
As we wallop around Cape Horn
Heave away, Haul away
You'll wish to God you'd never been born
We're bound for South Australia
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, Haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia
We're bound for South Australia
