Jim Jones - John Jones[00:00:00]

Come and listen for a moment lads[00:00:03]

And hear me tell my tale[00:00:06]

How across the sea from England[00:00:09]

I was condemned to sail[00:00:12]

Now the jury found me guilty[00:00:17]

Then says the judge says he[00:00:20]

For life Jim Jones I'm sending you[00:00:22]

Across the stormy sea[00:00:27]

But take a tip before you ship[00:00:29]

To join the iron gang[00:00:32]

Don't get too gay in Botany Bay[00:00:35]

Or else you'll surely hang[00:00:38]

Or else you'll surely hang says he[00:00:43]

And after that Jim Jones[00:00:46]

It's high above on the gallows tree[00:00:49]

The crows will pick your bones[00:00:53]

And our ship was high upon the sea[00:01:06]

Whhen pirates came along[00:01:09]

But the soldiers on our convict ship[00:01:13]

Were full five hundred strong[00:01:16]

For they opened fire and somehow drove[00:01:20]

That pirate ship away[00:01:24]

But I'd rather have joined that pirate ship[00:01:27]

That gone to Botany Bay[00:01:29]

With the storms ragin' round us[00:01:33]

And the winds a-blowing gale[00:01:36]

I'd rather have drowned in misery[00:01:39]

Than gone to new south wales[00:01:42]

There's no time for mischief there they say[00:01:47]

Remember that says they[00:01:50]

Oh they'll flog the poaching out of you[00:01:53]

Down there in Botany Bay[00:01:56]

Now it's day and night and the irons clang[00:02:10]

And like poor galley slaves[00:02:14]

We toil and toil and when we die[00:02:17]

Must fill dishonored graves[00:02:20]

By and by I'll slip my chains[00:02:25]

Well into the bush I'll go[00:02:28]

And I'll join the bravest rankers there[00:02:31]

Jack donohue and co[00:02:34]

And some dark night when everything[00:02:37]

Is silent in the town[00:02:40]

I'll shoot those tyrants one and all[00:02:43]

I'll gun the flogger down[00:02:46]

Oh I'll give the land a little shock[00:02:51]

Remember what I say[00:02:54]

And they'll yet regret they've sent Jim Jones[00:02:57]

In chains to Botany Bay[00:03:01]

Jim Jones[00:03:14]

Remember what I say[00:03:18]

Jim Jones[00:03:20]

Remember what I say[00:03:24]

Jim Jones[00:03:27]

Remember what I say[00:03:30]

Jim Jones[00:03:33]
