The Wild Colonial Boy 歌詞
The Wild Colonial Boy - Connie Foley
There was a wild colonial boy
Jack Duggan was his name
He was born and bred in Ireland
In a place called Castlemaine
He was his father's only pride
His mother's only joy
And dearly did his parents love
The wild colonial boy
At the early age of sixteen years
He left his native home
And to Australia's sunny flame
He was inclined to roam
He robbed the rich
And helped the poor
He step James McAvoy
A terror to Australia was
The wild colonial boy
One morning on the prairie
As Jack he rode along
Listening to the mocking birds
Singing their mocking song
Out stepped free mounted policemen
Kelly Davis and Fitzroy
They all set out to capture him
The wild colonial boy
Surrender now Jack Duggan
For you are three to one
Surrender in the Queen's name
For you're a plundering son
Jack pulled two pistols from his belt
And proudly waved them high
I'll fight I'll not surrender said
The wild colonial boy
Jack fired a shot at Kelly
Which brought him to the ground
And turning then to Davis
He received a fatal wound
A bullet pierced his proud young heart
From the pistol of Fitzroy
And that is how they captured him
The wild colonial boy
