Aussie Bush Band - Botany Bay lyrics

Artist: Aussie Bush Band

album: Great Australian Songs


Farewell to Old England forever
Farewell to my old pals as well
Farewell to the well-known Old Bailee
Where I once used to look such a swell
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ad-di-ty,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ay,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ad-di-ty
We are bound for Botany Bay
There's the captain as is our commandeer,
There's bosun and all the ship's crew
There's first and the second class passengers,
As what we know poor convicts goes through
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ad-di-ty,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ay,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ad-di-ty
We are bound for Botany Bay
'Taint leaving Old England we cares about,
'Taint 'cos we misspells wot we knows
But because all we light finger'd gentry
Hop's around with a log on our toes.
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ad-di-ty,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ay,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ad-di-ty
We are bound for Botany Bay
Now all my young Dookies and Duchesses,
Take warning from what I've to say,
Mind all is your own as you touch-es-es,
Or you'll find us in Botany Bay,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ad-di-ty,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ay,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ad-di-ty
We are bound for Botany Bay.
