[Verse 1]
Farewell to Old England forever
Farewell to my rum culls as well
Farewell to the well known Old Bailee
Where I used for to cut such a swell
[Chorus]
Singing toorali-orali-addity
Singing toorali-oolari-ai
Singing toorali-ollari-addity
We're bound for Botany Bay
[Verse 2]
'Taint leaving Old England we cares about
'Taint 'cos we mispells wot we knows
But becos all we light fingered gentry
Hop's around with a log on our toes
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
There's the captain as is our commander
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
Farewell to Old England forever
Farewell to my rum culls as well
Farewell to the well known Old Bailee
Where I used for to cut such a swell
[Chorus]
Singing toorali-orali-addity
Singing toorali-oolari-ai
Singing toorali-ollari-addity
We're bound for Botany Bay
[Verse 2]
'Taint leaving Old England we cares about
'Taint 'cos we mispells wot we knows
But becos all we light fingered gentry
Hop's around with a log on our toes
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
There's the captain as is our commander
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
