Bound For South Australia

In South Australia I was born
Heave away, haul away
South Australia round Cape Horn
We’re bound for South Australia


Heave away, you rolling king
Heave away, haul away
Heave away, oh hear me sing
We’re bound for South Austra
lia


There ain’t but one thing grieves my mind
To leave Miss Nancy Blair behind


And now I’m on some foreign strand
With a bottle of whiskey in my hand


And as we wallop around Cape Horn
We’ll wish to God we’d never been born
