Botany Bay Don't you weep you Sidney girls Heave away boys, let her go. Anchors weighed and sails unfurled, Heave away boys, haul away boys, Haul on the halyard, stamp and go. I never thought I'd see the day We'd sail away from Botany Bay; Heave away boys, haul away boys, Haul on the halyard, stamp and go. Blow today and blow tomorrow: Blow away all care and sorrow: Transport out and timber home: Across the wide and raging foam: With a fist full of tin, we'll leave the dock: You Plymouth girls we soon will rock: One more haul and that'll do: For we're the bullies to kick her through: Don't you weep you Sidney girls: Anchors weighed and sails unfurled: Written by Graham Moore and now sung by The Shanty Annas
