South Australia lyrics

Song: South Australia

Key of C (blow G)

Lyrics

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

Chorus

Haul away, you rollin' king!
Heave away, Haul away!
Haul away, Oh hear me sing!
We're bound for South Australia

As I went out one morning fair,
Heave away, Haul away!
'twas there I met Miss Nancy Blair,
We’re bound for South Australia! (Chorus)

I shook her up, I shook her down,
Heave away, Haul away!
I shook her round about the town
We’re bound for South Australia! (Chorus)

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 (Chorus)

As we went down around Cape Horn,
Heave away, Haul away!
You wish to God you'd never been born!
We’re bound for South Australia!
Chorus (normal)
Chorus (everyone sings, no holding) with slow last two lines
