Sea Shanty 

Verse 1 - 
England came to Australia
But all they did was a failure
They started to form colonies
Because they ran out of space in Britain

Verse 2 -
First they needed good resources
So Stirling asked them for  more forces
He got everyone on side
To go to the Swanny River
​
Verse 3 -
 Distributing all the land
Striling brings his british band
All the food was old and stale
​And the shelters were too small

Verse 4 
They brought convicts to do hard labour
They were doing us a favour
They built Fremantle Prison
and we put them all inside.

Verse 5
They found gold in our land
People were happy it was grand
The people all went crazy
All over the Swanny River
​
Verse 6 - The Class
We'll take you back right to the start
When British people had no heart
They took away Aboriginal Land
And even took their lives

​
​Chorus
In 1829,
Stirling came our coastline,
Founded a colony,
On the banks of the Swanny River.

​Final Chorus
In 1829,
Before they came our coastline,
Indigenous people made their life,
On the banks of the Swanny River.
