[Verse 1]
In South Australia I was born
(Heave away! Haul away!)
In South Australia round Cape Horn
(We're bound for South Australia)

Haul away, you rolling kings
(Heave away! Haul away!)
Haul away, oh hear me sing
(We're bound for South Australia)

[Verse 2]
As I walked out one morning fair
(Heave away! Haul away!)
It's there I met Miss Nancy Blair
(We're bound for South Australia)

[Chorus]
Haul away, you rolling kings
(Heave away! Haul away!)
Haul away, oh hear me sing
(We're bound for South Australia)

[Verse 3]
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)
[Chorus]
Haul away, you rolling kings
(Heave away! Haul away!)
Haul away, oh hear me sing
(We're bound for South Australia)

[Verse 4]
There ain't but onе thing grieves me mind
(Hеave away! Haul away!)
To leave young Nancy Blair behind
(We're bound for South Australia)

[Chorus]
Haul away, you rolling kings
(Heave away! Haul away!)
Haul away, oh hear me sing
(We're bound for South Australia)

[Verse 5]
I'm Bristol born and Bristol bred
(Heave away! Haul away!)
I'm thick in the arm and thick in the head
(We're bound for South Australia)

[Chorus]
Haul away, you rolling kings
(Heave away! Haul away!)
Haul away, oh hear me sing
(We're bound for South Australia)
Haul away, you rolling kings
Heave away! Haul away!
Haul away, oh hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia
