It's high above on the gallows tree

The crows will pick your bones"

Than gone to Botany Bay

With the storms ragin' round us

Down there in Botany Bay

C
We toil and toil, and when we die
Bb
C
Must fill dishonored graves

And I'll join the bravest rankers there
Bb
C
F
Jack Donohue and co
Bb
And some dark night, when everything
F
Is silent in the town
Bb
I'll shoot those tyrants one and all
F
C
I'll gun the floggers down

Oh, I'll give the land a little shock
Bb
Remember what I say

And they'll yet regret
C
they've sent Jim Jones
Bb
F
In chains to Botany Bay
