Farewell to old England forever
Farewell to my rum calls as well
Farewell to the well-known Old Bailey
Where I used for to cut such a swell

Singing to rely-er-a-liality
Singing to rely-er-a-lie
Singing to rely-er-a-liality
For we're bound for Barton-y-bay

There's the captain as is our commander
There's the boatswain and all the ship's crew
There's the first and the second class passengers
Knows what we poor convicts go through

Singing to rely-er-a-liality
Singing to rely-er-a-lie
Singing to rely-er-a-liality
For we're bound for Barton-y-bay

Oh, had I the wings of a turtle dove
I'd soar on my pinions so high
Slap bang in the arms of my polly love
And in her sweet presence I'd die

Singing to rely-er-a-liality
Singing to rely-er-a-lie
Singing to rely-er-a-liality
For we're bound for Barton-y-bay

Now all my young dukies and duchesses
Take warning from what I've to say
Mind all is your own as you touchesses
Or you'll find us in Barton-y-bay

Singing to rely-er-a-liality
Singing to rely-er-a-lie
Singing to rely-er-a-liality
For we're bound for Barton-y-bay

Singing to rely-er-a-liality
Singing to rely-er-a-lie
Singing to rely-er-a-liality
For we're bound for Barton-y-bay
