In 1803 we sailed out to sea Out from the sweet town of Derry. For Australia bound if we didn't all drown And the marks of our feckles we carried In the rusty iron chains we cried for our wanes Our good women we left there in sorrow As the main sails unfurled, our curses we hurled At the English and the thoughts of tomorrow At the mouth of the Foyle, bid farwell to the soil As down below decks we were lying. O'Docherty's scream woke him out of a dream By a vision of bold Robert dying. The sun burned cruel and we dished out the gruel Dan O'Connor was down with the fever Sixty rebels today bound for botany bay How many would reach there this evening? Refrain: Oh....oh, I wish I was back home in Derry. Oh....oh, I wish I was back home in Derry.
