Roaring Forties - The Go Set[00:00:00]
Well I met a fervent lady[00:00:06]
In the splendour of the night [00:00:07]
And a harlot is a curse and so began my plight [00:00:09]
I am a poor unhappy soul within these walls I lay [00:00:13]
And transportation sentenced [00:00:16]
I'm going far away [00:00:18]
I spent ever sovereign to maintain the lofty dame [00:00:26]
And when it all ran out she treated me with disdain [00:00:29]
So upon her orders I began a life to plunder [00:00:32]
But now she is long gone and I am left to wonder [00:00:35]
So here I ride on the roaring forties [00:00:38]
She'd tear for seven years in a foreign land [00:00:41]
Here I ride on the roaring forties [00:00:45]
She'd tear for seven years a forsaken man [00:00:48]
Well I was a young man proud [00:00:57]
But I turned a common thief [00:00:59]
A man will do most anything for a woman's spell beneath [00:01:01]
My aged parents proud they bitterly did cry [00:01:04]
They bid farewell their son [00:01:07]
And his soul goodbye [00:01:09]
So come all you native boys [00:01:17]
Come and gather round [00:01:19]
I'll tell you all the story of why I'm ironbound [00:01:21]
I stood before the judge and was sentenced for my ways [00:01:24]
He said my lad you are transported[00:01:27]
To Botany Bay [00:01:29]
So here I ride on the roaring forties [00:01:34]
She'd tear for seven years in a foreign land [00:01:37]
Here I ride on the roaring forties [00:01:40]
She'd tear for seven years a forsaken man [00:01:43]
Here I ride on the roaring forties [00:01:47]
Here I ride on the roaring forties [00:01:50]
Here I ride on the roaring forties [00:01:53]
She'd tear for seven years a forsaken man[00:01:57]
