Botany Bay
Farewell to your bricks and mortar
farewell to your dirty lies
Farewell to your gangway and your gangplanks
and to hell with your overtime
For the good ship Ragamuffin
she's lying at the Quay
To take oul' Pat with the shovel on his back
to the shores of Botany Bay
I'm on my way down to the quay
where the ship at anchor lays
To command a gang of navvies
they told me to engage
I though I'd drop in for a drink
before I sail away
For to take a trip on an emigrant ship
to the shores of Botany Bay
Farewell to your bricks and mortar
farewell to your dirty lies
Farewell to your gangway and your gangplanks
and to hell with your overtime
For the good ship Ragamuffin
she's lying at the Quay
To take oul' Pat with the shovel on his back
to the shores of Botany Bay
The boss came up this morning
he says "Well Pat, hello
If you don't get your navvies out
I'm afraid you'll have to go"
So I asked him for me vages
and I demanded all me pay
For I told him straight I'm going to emigrate
to the shores of Botany Bay
Farewell to your bricks and mortar
farewell to your dirty lies
Farewell to your gangway and your gangplanks
and to hell with your overtime
For the good ship Ragamuffin
she's lying at the Quay
To take oul' Pat with the shovel on his back
to the shores of Botany Bay
Farewell to your bricks and mortar
farewell to your dirty lies
Farewell to your gangway and your gangplanks
and to hell with your overtime
For the good ship Ragamuffin
she's lying at the Quay
To take oul' Pat with the shovel on his back
to the shores of Botany Bay
