LYRICS

Listen for a moment lads
And hear me tell my tale
Across the sea from England shore
I was condemned to sail
The jury found me guilty, sir
And then the judge, said he
"For life, Jim Jones, I sentence you
Across the stormy sea"

And take my tip before you ship
To join the iron gang
Don't get too gay in Botany Bay
Or else you'll surely hang
"Or else you'll surely hang," says he
"And after that, Jim Jones
High up upon the gallows tree
The crows will pick your bones"

There's no chance for mischief there
Remember what I say
They'll flog the poaching out of you
Out there in Botany Bay
The waves were high upon the sea,
the wind blew up in gales
I'd rather drown in misery
Than come to New South Wales

The winds blew high upon the sea
And the pirates came along
The soldiers on our convict ship
Were full five hundred strong
They opened fire and somehow drove
That pirate ship away
I'd rather joined that pirate ship
Than come to Botany Bay

There'll come a night, when everything
Will be silent in this town
I'll kill you bastards one by one
And shoot the floggers down
I'll give them all a little shock
Remember what I say
They'll yet regret they sent Jim Jones
In chains to Botany Bay

For days and nights and the irons clang
And like poor galley slaves
We toil and toil, and when we die
Must find dishonored graves
But by and by I'll break my chains
Into the bush I'll go
And you'll be dead behind me, John,
when I get to Mexico
