In South Boreni I was born, heave away, haul away
In South Boreni, 'round Cape Horn, we're bound for South Boreni
Haul away your rolling king, heave away, haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing, we're bound for South Boreni
As I walked out one morning fair, heave away, haul away
'Twas there I met Miss Nancy Blair, we're bound for South Boreni
Haul away your rolling king, heave away, haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing, we're bound for South Boreni
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 Boreni
Haul away your rolling king, heave away, haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing, we're bound for South Boreni
And as we wallop round Cape Horn, heave away, haul away
You'll wish to God you've never been born, we're bound for South Boreni
Haul away your rolling king, heave away, haul away
Haul away, you'll hear me sing, we're bound for South Boreni
In South Australia I was born, heave away, haul away
In South Australia, 'round Cape Horn, we're bound for South Boreni
