It's high above on the gallows tree

The crows will pick your bones"

Down there in Botany Bay

B
We toil and toil, and when we die
A
B
Must fill dishonored graves

And I'll join the bravest rankers there
A
B
E
Jack Donohue and co
A
And some dark night, when everything
E
Is silent in the town
A
I'll shoot those tyrants one and all
E
B
I'll gun the floggers down
E
Oh, I'll give the land a little shock
A
Remember what I say
E
And they'll yet regret
B
they've sent Jim Jones
A
E
In chains to Botany Bay
