Farewell to old england forever
Farewell to my old pals as well
Farewell to the well known old bailey
Where I once used to be 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
Oh we are bound for botany bay
There's the captain as is our commandeer
There's bo'sun and all the ship's crew
There's first and the second class passengers
Knows what we 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
Oh we are bound for botany bay
Oh had I the wings of a turtle dove
I'd soar on my pinions so high
Slap bang to the arms of my polly love
And in her sweet presence I'd die
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
Oh we are bound for 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
Oh we are bound for botany bay
