Eighteen hundred and eighty five[00:00:27]
Is a year I remember well[00:00:30]
When they drove old brad into an early grave[00:00:34]
And sent my mother to jail[00:00:39]
Now I don't know what's right or wrong[00:00:43]
But they hung Christ on nails[00:00:46]
But with six kids at home and two still on her breast[00:00:50]
They wouldn't even give her bail[00:00:54]
Oh Ned you're better off dead[00:00:58]
You get no peace of mind[00:01:02]
A track's a trail[00:01:06]
And hot on your tail[00:01:08]
Before they're gonna hang you high[00:01:10]
I did write a letter[00:01:14]
And I sealed it with my hand[00:01:17]
Tried to tell about stringy bog creek[00:01:22]
And tried to make them understand[00:01:26]
I didn't wanna kill Kennedy[00:01:30]
Or cause his blood to run[00:01:33]
Well he alone could have saved his life[00:01:37]
By throwing down his gun[00:01:41]
Oh Ned you're better off dead[00:01:45]
You get no peace of mind[00:01:49]
A track's a trail[00:01:53]
They're hot on your tail[00:01:55]
Before they're gonna hang you high[00:01:57]
I'd rather die like donahue[00:02:36]
That bush ranger so brave[00:02:39]
Than be taken by the government[00:02:43]
And forced to walk in chains[00:02:47]
I'd rather fight with all my might[00:02:52]
While I have the eyes to see[00:02:54]
Well I'd rather die ten thousand times[00:02:58]
Than hang from a gallow's tree[00:03:03]
Oh Ned you're better off dead[00:03:07]
You get no peace of mind[00:03:11]
A track's a trail[00:03:15]
And they're hot on your tail[00:03:16]
Before they're gonna hang you high[00:03:19]
Oh Ned you're better off dead[00:03:23]
You get no peace of mind[00:03:27]
A track's a trail[00:03:31]
They're hot on your tail[00:03:33]
Before they're gonna hang you high[00:03:35]
