Lyrics
In South Australia I was born
Heave away, haul away
In South Australia round Cape Horn
We’re bound for South Australia
Haul away your rolling king
Heave away, haul away
Haul away you’ll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia
As I woke up one morning fair
Heave away, Haul away
'Twas there I met Miss Nancy Blair
We're bound for South Australia
Oh 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
There's just one thing that's on 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 God you’d never been born
We're bound for South Australia
