Lyrics South Australia - Les Marins D'Iroise

South Australia

In South Australia I was born
Well, heave away, haul away
In South Australia round Cape Horn
We’re bound for South Australia
Haul away, you rolling king
Well, heave away, haul away
Haul away, oh hear me sing
We’re bound for South Australia
As I walked out one morning fair
Well, heave away, haul away
't was there I met Miss Nancy Blair
We’re bound for South Australia
Haul away, you rolling king
Well, heave away, haul away
Haul away, oh hear me sing
We’re bound for South Australia
There ain’t but one thing grieves my mind
Well, heave away, haul away
To leave Miss Nancy Blair’s behind
We’re bound for South Australia
Haul away, you rolling king
Well, heave away, haul away
Haul away, oh hear me sing
We’re bound for South Australia
O when I sail across the sea
Well, heave away, haul away
My girl says she’d be true to me
We’re bound for South Australia
Haul away, you rolling king
Well, heave away, haul away
Haul away, oh hear me sing
We’re bound for South Australia
I rung her all night, I rung her all day
Well, heave away, haul away
I rung her before we sailed away
We’re bound for South Australia
Haul away, you rolling king
Well, heave away, haul away
Haul away, oh hear me sing
We’re bound for South Australia
I shook her up, I shook her down
Well, heave away, haul away
I shook her round and round and round
We’re bound for South Australia
Haul away, you rolling king
Well, heave away, haul away
Haul away, oh hear me sing
We’re bound for South Australia
Oh, when we wallop around Cape Horn
Well, heave away, haul away
You’ll wish to God you’d never been born
We’re bound for South Australia
Haul away, you rolling king
Well, heave away, haul away
Haul away, oh hear me sing
We’re bound for South Australia
I wish I was on Australia strand
Well, heave away, haul away
With a glass of whiskey in my hand
We’re bound for South Australia
Haul away, you rolling king
Well, heave away, haul away
Haul away, oh hear me sing
We’re bound for South Australia
