[00:06.63] | There's a name that Australia will never forget, |
[00:10.64] | The best known Australian I'd sure like to bet, |
[00:15.00] | Though granted it's over, dishonoured his name, |
[00:18.65] | Yet one thing is certain, Ned Kelly was game; |
[00:22.55] | "Game as Ned Kelly" the people would say, " |
[00:26.26] | "Game as Ned Kelly" they say it today. " |
[00:33.05] | Oh great was their fame when the Kelly boys rode, |
[00:36.83] | Those daring bushrangers with no fixed abode, |
[00:40.99] | They laughed at the law, a big price on their head, |
[00:44.77] | The troopers could never catch up with wild Ned; |
[00:48.83] | "Game as Ned Kelly" the people would say, " |
[00:52.63] | "Game as Ned Kelly" they say it today. " |
[01:00.45] | They stuck up the stations but never were caught, |
[01:05.14] | But everyone reckons that Ned was a sport, |
[01:08.53] | They captured a township, those bushrangers bold, |
[01:12.72] | Then off to the ranges they rode with the gold; |
[01:16.08] | "Game as Ned Kelly" the people would say, " |
[01:20.80] | "Game as Ned Kelly" they say it today. " |
[01:27.14] | But at last at Glenrowan the Kelly gang fell, |
[01:30.78] | While fighting for life from the burning hotel, |
[01:34.66] | When out came Ned Kelly still blazing away, |
[01:38.53] | 'til wounded by troopers he fell in the grey; |
[01:42.71] | "Game as Ned Kelly" the people would say, " |
[01:46.09] | "Game as Ned Kelly" they say it today. " |
[01:55.22] | And so to the gallows the outlaw was led, |
[01:59.08] | "Now die like a Kelly" his mother had said, “ |
[02:02.97] | "A fate such is life" the bold bushranger sighed, “ |
[02:06.24] | The trapdoor sprang open and Ned Kelly died; |
[02:10.76] | "Game as Ned Kelly" the people would say, " |
[02:14.30] | "Game as Ned Kelly" they say it today. " |
[02:21.18] | And so young Australians take heed of this song, |
[02:25.17] | Be game as you like but don't do any wrong, |
[02:28.79] | Remember the warning ‘that crime doesn't pay', |
[02:33.45] | Remember Ned Kelly and walk the straight way; |
[02:37.43] | "Game as Ned Kelly" the people would say, " |
[02:41.29] | "Game as Ned Kelly" they say it today. " |
