Pogues, The - South Australia текст песни

In South Australia I was born

Heave away, haul away


South Australia 'round cape Horn

We're bound for South Australia



Chorus;

Haul away you rolling kings

Heave away, haul away

Haul away and you'll hear me sing

And we're bound for South Australia



As I walked out one morning fair

Heave away, haul away

Oh I changed to meet with Nancy Blair

We're bound for South Australia



Well I shook her up and I shook her down

Heave away, haul away

I danced her round and round the town

We're bound for South Australia



There ain't one king but grieves my mind

Heave away, haul away

Is to leave sweet Nancy Blair behind

We're bound for South Australia



I wish I was on some lonesome strand

Heave away, haul away

With rum and whiskey all in my hand

We're bound for South Australia



Two old woman sleepin' on the sand

Heave away, haul away

Each one wishing that the other was a man

And we're bound for South Australia



As we warped around the cape Horn

Heave away, haul away

Oh you wish to Christ you never was born

We're bound for South Australia
