The Wild Colonial Boy - The Limeliters[00:00:00]
There was a wild colonial youth[00:00:05]
Jack Doolan was his name[00:00:08]
Of poor but honest parents[00:00:10]
He was born in Castlemaine[00:00:12]
He was his father's only hope[00:00:15]
His mother's only joy[00:00:17]
The pride of both his parents[00:00:19]
Was the wild colonial boy[00:00:21]
So come all my hearties[00:00:24]
We'll range the mountainside[00:00:26]
Together we will plunder together we will ride[00:00:29]
We'll scour along the valleys[00:00:33]
And gallop over the plains[00:00:35]
We'll scorn to live in slavery[00:00:38]
Bowed down in iron chains[00:00:40]
In sixty one this daring youth[00:00:44]
Commenced his wild career[00:00:46]
With a heart that knew no danger[00:00:49]
No foeman did he fear[00:00:51]
He held up the Beechworth mailcoach[00:00:53]
And he robbed Judge macevoy[00:00:55]
Who trembled and gave up[00:00:58]
His gold to the wild colonial boy[00:01:00]
So come all my hearties[00:01:03]
We'll range the mountainside[00:01:05]
Together we will plunder together we will ride[00:01:07]
We'll scour along the valleys[00:01:12]
And gallop over the plains[00:01:14]
We'll scorn to live in slavery[00:01:17]
Bowed down in iron chains[00:01:19]
One day as he was riding the mountainside along[00:01:23]
Alistening to the little birds[00:01:27]
Their pleasant laughing song[00:01:29]
Three mounted troopers[00:01:32]
Came in view Kelly Davis and Fitzroy[00:01:33]
And thought that they would capture him[00:01:36]
The wild colonial boy[00:01:38]
So come all my hearties[00:01:41]
We'll range the mountainside[00:01:43]
Together we will plunder together we will ride[00:01:46]
We'll scour along the valleys[00:01:50]
And gallop over the plains[00:01:52]
We'll scorn to live in slavery[00:01:55]
Bowed down in iron chains[00:01:57]
Surrender now Jack Doolan[00:02:01]
You see there's three to one[00:02:03]
Surrender now Jack Doolan[00:02:05]
You daring highwayman[00:02:08]
He drew a pistol from[00:02:10]
His belt and spun it like a toy[00:02:12]
I'll fight but I won't surrender[00:02:15]
Said the wild colonial boy[00:02:16]
So come all my hearties[00:02:19]
We'll range the mountainside[00:02:22]
Together we will plunder together we will ride[00:02:24]
We'll scour along the valleys[00:02:29]
And gallop over the plains[00:02:31]
We'll scorn to live in slavery[00:02:33]
Bowed down in iron chains[00:02:35]
Well he fired at trooper Kelly[00:02:39]
And brought him to the ground[00:02:41]
And in return from[00:02:43]
Davis received a mortal wound[00:02:45]
All shattered through the jaws[00:02:48]
He lay still firing at Fitzroy[00:02:50]
Yes you're captured and I resim the wild colonial boy[00:02:53]
So come all my hearties[00:02:57]
We'll range the mountainside[00:03:00]
Together we will plunder together we will ride[00:03:02]
We'll scour along the valleys[00:03:07]
And gallop over the plains[00:03:09]
We'll scorn to live in slavery[00:03:11]
Bowed down in iron chains[00:03:14]
So come all my hearties[00:03:16]
We'll range the mountainside[00:03:18]
Together we will plunder together we will ride[00:03:20]
