[C]In South Australia I [F]was [C]born!
[F]Heave a[C]way! [F]Haul aw[C]ay!
In [C]South Australia [G7]round Cape [C]Horn!
We're [C]bound for South Austra[G7]li[C]a!
[F]Haul away, you rolling [C]king,
[F]Heave a[C]way! [F]Haul a[C]way!
[F]Haul away and hear me [C]sing
We're [C]bound for South Aus[G7]trali[C]a!
As I walked out one morning fair,
Heave away! Haul away!
'Twas there I met Miss Nancy Blair.
We're bound for South Australia!
I shook her up, I shook her down,
Heave away! Haul away!
I shook her round and round the town.
We're bound for South Australia!
There ain't but one thing grieves my mind,
Heave away! Haul away!
To leave Miss Nancy Blair behind.
We're bound for South Australia!
And as you lollop round Cape Horn,
Heave away! Haul away!
You'll wish to Christ you'd never been born!
We're bound for South Australia!
