Botany Bay |
Farewell to old England forever |
Farewell to me sweetheart as well |
Oh keep me child safe in your arms love |
I need you like no words can tell |
Too ra ly too ra ly adity |
Too ra ly too ra ly ay |
Too ra ly too ra ly adity |
Sailing to Botany Bay |
The captain that is our commander |
He sails by the stars and the sun |
If e’er well I live I’ll return again |
To me darling sweet kisses I’d run |
For seven long years he’s transported |
Seven long years and a day |
Oh I wish I were drowned on the ocean bed |
For they’ve taken my truelove away |
If I had the wings of a turtle dove |
I’d soar on me pinions and fly |
I’d fly to the arms of me Polly love |
And in her sweet bosom I’d lie |
