Farewell to old England forever

Farewell to me sweetheart as well

Oh keep me child safe in your arms love

I need you like no words can tell


Too ra ly too ra ly adity

Too ra ly too ra ly ay

Too ra ly too ra ly adity

Sailing to Botany Bay


The captain that is our commander

He sails by the stars and the sun

If e'er well I live I'll return again

To me darling sweet kisses I'd run.


CHORUS


For seven long years he's transported

Seven long years and a day

Oh I wish I were drowned on the ocean bed

For they've taken my truelove away


CHORUS


If I had the wings of a turtle dove

I'd soar on me pinions and fly

I'd fly to the arms of me Polly love

And in her sweet bosom I'd lie.
