The Halliard - The Suffering Of Charles Adolphus King lyrics

I pray you attend to the sad tale of Charles Adolphus King From Manchester transported was for the crime of housebreaking Four years ago was many an (oak??) that he French-leave did take And for the crime sent it back again when he these words did say Oh my Lord dear Lord I pray Send me again to Botany Bay I was but nineteen years of age when I did the sad crime For which I then transported was and have served four years time I was six months on board the Hawks and then with the Moors set sail For Botany Bay where the hard ships (take make port transport me way??) Oh my Lord dear Lord I pray Send me again to Botany Bay Then a two way master thought well means to him I was a**igned Ah but when he left the country poor King was left behind And further in to that dreadful land to a chain gang I was sent Where worse than slaves amid the toil and want our days and nights were spent Oh my Lord dear Lord I pray Send me again to Botany Bay I with John Carney did escape we wandered in the woods Until we met some savages who kindly gave us food Then hid ourselves on board a ship which with us then set sail From Botany Bay where the hard ships (take make port transport me way??) Oh my Lord dear Lord I pray Send me again to Botany Bay Oh do my live some pity take my years they are but few I was brought up in ignorance as many people knew To teach me what was right or wrong my parent they did fail And the only schooling I got was in the New Bailey gaol Oh my Lord dear Lord I pray Send me again to Botany Bay The smoke and (foot??) in the Aldophus at Liverpool Assizes It filled the judge and the court likewise with pity and surprise The judge with tears he said Young man you're pleading is in vain I have no power the law commands You must go back again
