The Pogues - South Australia Lyrics

The Pogues Lyrics

"South Australia"

In South Australia, I was born
Heave away, haul away
In South Australia around Cape Horn
We're bound for South Australia

Haul away your rolling kings
Heave away, haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia

As I walked out one morning fair
Heave away, haul away
'Twas there I met Miss Nancy Blair
We're bound for South Australia

Haul away your rolling kings
Heave away, haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia

There's just one thing that's on my mind
Heave away, haul away
That's leaving Nancy Blair behind
We're bound for South Australia

Haul away your rolling kings
Heave away, haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia

And as we wallop around Cape Horn
Heave away, haul away
You'll wish to God you've never been born
We're bound for South Australia

Haul away your rolling kings
Heave away, haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia

In South Australia, I was born
Heave away, haul away
In South Australia around Cape Horn
We're bound for South Australia

Haul away your rolling kings
Heave away, haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia

Haul away your rolling kings
Heave away, haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing
We're bound for South Australia
