In South Australia I was born To me heave away, haul away In South Australia round Cape Horn We're bound for South Australia Haul away you rolling kings To me heave away, haul away Haul away, you'll hear me sing We're bound for South Australia As I walked out one morning fair To me heave away, haul away 'Twas there I met Miss Nancy Blair I shook her up and I shook her down To me heave away, haul away I shook her round and round the town I run her all night and I run her all day To me heave away, haul away And I run her until we sailed away There ain't but one thing grieves me mind To me heave away, haul away To leave Miss Nancy Blair behind And as we wallop around Cape Horn To me heave away, haul away You'll wish to God you'd never been born In South Australia my native land To me heave away, haul away Full of rocks and thieves and fleas and sand I wish I was on Australia's strand To me heave away, haul away With a bottle of whiskey in my hand
