Sailing to Botany Bay
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/kate-rusby-botany-bay-lyrics.html ]
The captain that is our commander
He sails by the stars and the sun
If e'er well I live I'll return again
To me darling sweet kisses I'd run.
CHORUS
For seven long years he's transported
Seven long years and a day
Oh I wish I were drowned on the ocean bed
For they've taken my truelove away
CHORUS
If I had the wings of a turtle dove
I'd soar on me pinions and fly
I'd fly to the arms of me Polly love
And in her sweet bosom I'd lie.
CHORUS
