Lovers should hasten to Good Hope;

To some Cape Horn is pain;

Debtors should go to Oh-i-o,

And Sailors to the Main-e.

Hie, Bachelors, to the United States!

Maids, to the Isle of Man;

Let Gardeners go to Botany Bay,

And Shoeblacks to Japan.

Thus, emigrants and misplaced men

Will then no longer vex us;
