_ [F] I'm on me way [Dm] down to the [Bb] quay Where the good ship [F] Nell doth lay
To command a gang [Dm] of navvies [G] There I was ordered to [C] engage
[F] And I thought I would [Dm] stop in For a while before I sailed away
[D] But to take a trip on an immigrant ship To the shores of Botany Bay
[F] Farewell to your [Dm] bricks and mortar [Bb] Farewell to your [F] dirty line
Farewell to your [Dm] gangway and your [G] gangplank And to hell with your [C] old pie
[F] For the good ship [Dm] Ragamuffin She's my an advocate
[D] For to take old Pat with a shovel on his back To the shores of [Dm] Botany Bay
_ _ The [F] best years [Dm] of our lives We [Bb] spend a-workin' [F] on the docks
A-buildin' [Dm] mighty wards Of [G] Peasmuth and [C] Ballast Rocks
Our pensions keep our jobs secure But I shan't need a day
[D] When I take that trip on an immigrant ship To the shores of Botany Bay
[F] Farewell to your [Dm] bricks and mortar [Bb] Farewell to your [F] dirty line
Farewell to your [Dm] gangway and your [G] gangplank And to hell with your [C] old pie

_ _ _ _ _ _ Listen here, [F] the boss come out [Dm] this mornin' And he said, White Hat, [F] hello
If you do not mix [Dm] the mortar quickly [G] Be sure you'll have to [C] go
Well, [F] of course he did [Dm] insult me And I demanded all me pay
And [D] I told him straight I was gonna emigrate To the shores of Botany Bay
[F] Farewell to your bricks [Dm] and mortar [Bb] Farewell to your [F] dirty line
Farewell to your [Dm] gangway and your gangplank [G] And to hell with your old [C] pie
[F] For the good ship [Dm] Ragamuffin She's my an advocate
For [D] to take old Pat with a shovel on his back To the shores of Botany Bay
[F] _ _ _ And when I reach Australia [Bb] I'll go and search for [F] gold
There's plenty there [Dm] for diggin' [G] up Or so I [C] have been told
Or maybe I'll [Dm] go back to me trade Eight hundred bricks I'll lay
For an eight hour shift and an eight bob pay On the shores of Botany Bay
[F] Farewell to your [Dm] bricks and mortar [Bb] Farewell to your [F] dirty line
Farewell to your [Dm] gangway and your [G] gangplank And to hell with your [C] old pie
