Luyện nghe bài hát Van Diemen's Land

Van Diemans

Early in the morning the chill still in the air
We sailed from harbour no the westerly blowing bare
The rain was tumbling all around in buckets the sky
And the wind had stole our breath away, sharp as a razored
On a rolling sea to the end of the world on Georges ship
Two hundred lost and hungry would feel a lash and whip
A gale it howled all through the rigging on first night
It's like the devil himself up singing his lullaby

I'm going down, down, down. Van Land.
I'm going down, bound. Van Diemens Land.

Early days out at sea and the wind it blew too
So the monsters round the deck to the beat of mournful night
Oh Row, Row, woe is me have mercy on my
Who ever thought I'd end up some god for-saken hole.

I'm down, down, down. Van Diemans Land.
I'm going down, bound. Van Diemens Land.
Verse3:
Late at night the at sea is rocking like a cradle
Drifting with my haunted dreams, the on the table
Then the wind it starts it's conjuring up the waves
Then I tell myself when it fortune favours the brave

I'm going down, down, down. Van Land.
I'm down, hell bound. Van Diemens Land.
Chorus NO

We sailed around the south cape and up the Derwants mouth
And on-towards Hobart town, the rumours about
We heard the Chinese whispers of Port Arthur and rack
If I get myself out of here, ain't coming back

I'm down, down, down. Van Diemans Land.
I'm down, hell bound. Van Diemens Land.
