So farewell to your bricks and mortar
Farewell to your dirty lies
Farewell to your gangers and your gangplanks
And to hell with your overtime
For the good ship Ragamuffin
She's lying at the quay
For to take old Pat
With a shovel on his back
To the shores of Botany Bay
Ay!
I'm on my way down to the quay
Where the good ship anchor lies
To command a gang of navvies
I was told to engage
I thought I'd stop in for a drink
'Fore I go away
For to take a trip on that immigrant ship
To the shores of Botany Bay
Oh, farewell to your bricks and mortar
Farewell to your dirty lies
Farewell to your gangers and your gangplanks
And to hell with your overtime
For the good ship Ragamuffin
Who's lying at the quay
For to take old Pat
With a shovel on his back
To the shores of Botany Bay
Hey!
Well, the boss came down this morning
He says, "Pat, you know
If you don't get those navvies out
I'm afraid you'll have to go"
So I asked him for my wages
Demanded all my pay
And I told him straight I'm gonna emigrate to
The Shores of Botany Bay
Oh, farewell to your bricks and mortar
Farewell to your dirty lies
Farewell to your gangers and your gangplanks
And to hell with your overtime
For the good ship Ragamuffin
Who's lying at the quay
For to take old Pat
With a shovel on his back
To the shores of Botany Bay
Hey!
Oh, and when I reach Australia
I'll go and look for gold
Oh, there's plenty there for diggin' up
Or so I've been told
Or else I'll go back to my trade
A hundred bricks I'll lay
Because I live for the eight hour shifts
On the Shores of Botany Bay
Oh, farewell to your bricks and mortar
Farewell to your dirty lies
Farewell to your gangers and your gangplanks
And to hell with your overtime
For the good ship Ragamuffin
Who's lying at the quay
For to take old Pat
With a shovel on his back
To the shores of Botany Bay
Hey! (hey!)
Farewell to your dirty lies
Farewell to your gangers and your gangplanks
And to hell with your overtime
For the good ship Ragamuffin
She's lying at the quay
For to take old Pat
With a shovel on his back
To the shores of Botany Bay
Ay!
I'm on my way down to the quay
Where the good ship anchor lies
To command a gang of navvies
I was told to engage
I thought I'd stop in for a drink
'Fore I go away
For to take a trip on that immigrant ship
To the shores of Botany Bay
Oh, farewell to your bricks and mortar
Farewell to your dirty lies
Farewell to your gangers and your gangplanks
And to hell with your overtime
For the good ship Ragamuffin
Who's lying at the quay
For to take old Pat
With a shovel on his back
To the shores of Botany Bay
Hey!
Well, the boss came down this morning
