Lyrics
In South Australia, I was born
Heave away, haul away!
In South Australia, 'round Cape Horn
And we're bound for South Australia!
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, haul away!
Heave away, you'll hear me sing
And we're bound for South Australia!
As I walked out one morning fair
Heave away, haul away!
'Twas there I met Miss Nancy Blair
And we're bound for South Australia!
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, haul away!
Heave away, you'll hear me sing
And 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
And we're bound for South Australia!
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, haul away!
Heave away, you'll hear me sing
And we're bound for South Australia!
There's just one thing that grieves my mind
Heave away, haul away!
To leave Miss Nancy Blair behind
And we're bound for South Australia!
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, haul away!
Heave away, you'll hear me sing
And we're bound for South Australia!
And when you wallop around Cape Horn
Heave away, haul away!
You'll wish to Christ you'd never been born
And we're bound for South Australia!
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, haul away!
Heave away, you'll hear me sing
And we're bound for South Australia!
Oh, South Australia's a mighty fine place
Heave away, haul away!
To get blind drunk is no disgrace
And we're bound for South Australia!
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, haul away!
Heave away, you'll hear me sing
And we're bound for South Australia!
Oh, South Australia's a mighty fine land
Heave away, haul away!
It's filled with lizards, flies, and sand
And we're bound for South Australia!
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, haul away!
Heave away, you'll hear me sing
And we're bound for South Australia!
I wish I was on Australia's strand
Heave away, haul away!
With a bottle of whiskey in my hand
And we're bound for South Australia!
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, haul away!
Heave away, you'll hear me sing
And we're bound for South Australia!
Oh, South Australia, it is my home
Heave away, haul away!
From there I never more shall roam
And we're bound for South Australia!
Haul away you rolling kings
Heave away, haul away!
Heave away, you'll hear me sing
And we're bound for South Australia!
