about

This song tells the tale of a band of troubadours who travel to Botany Bay from their homeland to start a new life.

lyrics

Rally On - Belle Hendrik and Barry Milan

Over from the land we came
Following our history fame
our ancestors from Elondah
leaving all their life before their memories packed into their store
Coimhearsnachd here we come

We play all day We play all night
play the songs of love and life and all the wars we did fight
we come from here we run from there
hey oh merry oh we sail to Botany Bay

Many days we spent at sea all those nights we merrily
sing and dance no we don't care
over in the ships we came the oceans wild those stormy days
everyone there learned our songs

We play all day We play all night
play the songs of love and life and all the wars we did fight
we come from here we run from there
hey oh merry oh we sail to Botany Bay

We sail today with the dreams we made
taken from the land that we'll love to the end
but we could not stay cause they made us pay
rally on rally on

so we land on the shore - the brave the weak and all the poor
we step onto a sandy bay where many lives lived before
setting up a home for free sharing with our family
make the best of what we've got making bread and stir the pot

We play all day We play all night
play the songs of love and life and all the wars we did fight
we come from here we run from there
hey oh merry oh we sail to Botany Bay
