Here we go then!

AMELIA
John Tams

The work was hard and wages low.
    Amelia, where you bound to?
Now's the time to roll and go.
    Across this western ocean,
    Oh, Amelia, where you bound to?


    Amelia, where you bound to?
    Amelia, where you bound to?


I've been in the army and I've worked on the farm.
    Amelia, where you bound to?
All I've got to show is the muscle in my arm.
    Across this western ocean,
    Oh, Amelia, where you bound to?


Birds in the air and fishes in the sea.
    Amelia, where you bound to?
A red-haired woman made a mess out of me.
    Across this western ocean,
    Oh, Amelia, where you bound to?


If I had the wings of Noah's dove
    Amelia, where you bound to?
I'd fly back home to the one I love.
    Across this western ocean,
    Oh, Amelia, where you bound to?


If there's just one thing that does me pain,
    Amelia, where you bound to?
That's to never see your fair face again.
    Across this western ocean
    Oh, Amelia, where you bound to?


Amelia
