A tragic tale of transportation using Botany Bay, which is a well-known tune, but the words here are different. I was asked for a song from the point of view of a child being transported from England to Australia.

Here’s part of the backing track. Contact Cheryl if you’d like all of that.

You can find a full recording and singalong video further down this page under “Preview”.

John Hudson’s Bound For Botany Bay is one of the Sea Pie Parcel Collection of songs. You can find o0ut more about the others here!
