《The Shores of Botany Bay》歌词

[00:00:00] The Shores Of Botany Bay - The Wolfe Tones

[00:00:08] Farewell to your bricks and mortar,

[00:00:10] farewell to your dirty lies

[00:00:12] Farewell to your gangers and gang planks

[00:00:14] And to hell with your overtime

[00:00:16] For the good ship Ragamuffin,

[00:00:18] she's lying at the quay

[00:00:20] For to take oul Pat with a shovel on his back

[00:00:22] To the shores of Botany Bay

[00:00:26] I'm on my way down to the quay,

[00:00:28] where the ship at anchor lays

[00:00:29] To command a gang of navvys,

[00:00:31] that they told me to engage

[00:00:34] I thought I'd drop in for a drink before I went away

[00:00:36] For to take a trip on an emigrant ship

[00:00:39] to the shores of Botany Bay,

[00:00:41] Farewell to your bricks and mortar,

[00:00:43] farewell to your dirty lies

[00:00:45] Farewell to your gangers and gang planks

[00:00:47] And to hell with your overtime

[00:00:49] For the good ship Ragamuffin,

[00:00:51] she's lying at the quay

[00:00:53] For to take oul Pat with a shovel on his back

[00:00:55] To the shores of Botany Bay

[00:00:59] The boss came up this morning,

[00:01:01] he says "Well, Pat you know

[00:01:03] If you don't get your navvys out,

[00:01:05] I'm afraid you'll have to go"

[00:01:07] So I asked him for my wages

[00:01:09] and demanded all my pay

[00:01:11] For I told him straight,

[00:01:12] I'm going to emigrate to the shores of Botany Bay

[00:01:15] Farewell to your bricks and mortar,

[00:01:17] farewell to your dirty lies

[00:01:19] Farewell to your gangers and gang planks

[00:01:21] And to hell with your overtime

[00:01:23] For the good ship Ragamuffin,

[00:01:25] she's lying at the quay

[00:01:27] For to take oul Pat with a shovel on his back

[00:01:29] To the shores of Botany Bay

[00:01:31] Farewell to your bricks and mortar,

[00:01:33] farewell to your dirty lies

[00:01:35] Farewell to your gangers and gang planks

[00:01:37] And to hell with your overtime

[00:01:39] For the good ship Ragamuffin,

[00:01:40] she's lying at the quay

[00:01:43] For to take oul Pat with a shovel on his back

[00:01:45] To the shores of Botany Bay
