  Now that the storm has broken now as the winds blow cold
 There's nothing here but trouble and fear to make man grow old
 Now as our reasons are fading now as the walls tumble down
 With nothing to hide but hunger and pride
 Won't make a man look round
 
 So I'm leaving, yes I'm leaving
 For fortunes sweet pleasures to find
 I'm sailing out to Australia, Australia
 
 Now that our dreams are illusions now that our future has gone
 We've nothing more to hold or lay o'er to help a man hold on
 And now that our hearts lie so heavy now as our heads hang so low
 There's nothing here to catch or come clear
 To help a man say no
 
 They say there's gold and there's silver they say a man can come clean
 Just stake out some land and just reach out his hand and touch that new world dream
 They say it's warm and it's pleasing out in the New South Wales sun
 So I must go from this cold Highland snow
 Now that the hard times have come
