There was a Wild Colonial Boy, Jack Duggan was his name. |
| [00:16.180] |
He was born and raised in Ireland, in a place called Castlemain. |
| [00:24.192] |
He was his father's only son, his mother's pride and joy. |
| [00:32.681] |
And dearly did his parents love, the Wild Colonial Boy. |
| [00:40.862] |
At the early age of sixteen years, he left his native home. |
| [00:49.035] |
And to Australia's sunny shore, he was inclined to roam. |
| [00:56.958] |
He robbed the rich, to help the poor, he shot Judge McEvoy. |
| [01:05.260] |
A terror to Australia was, the Wild Colonial Boy. |
| [01:13.745] |
We'll roam the mountains and the glens, and we'll ride across the plains. |
| [01:21.552] |
We scorn to live in slavery bound down by an iron chain. |
| [01:29.927] |
One morning on the prairie, as Jack he rode along. |
| [01:37.716] |
A listening to the mockingbird, singing a cheerful song. |
| [01:46.428] |
Up jumped a band of troopers, Kelly, Davis and Fitzroy. |
| [01:54.323] |
They all set out to capture him, the Wild Colonial Boy. |
| [02:02.919] |
"Surrender now, Jack Duggan, for you see we're three to one." |
| [02:10.653] |
"Surrender in the Queen's high name, you are a plundering son." |
| [02:18.770] |
Jack drew two pistols from his belt and proudly waved them high. |
| [02:27.186] |
"I'll fight but not surrender," cried the Wild Colonial Boy. |
| [02:35.500] |
We'll roam the mountains and the glens, and we'll ride across the plains. |
| [02:43.399] |
We scorn to live in slavery bound down by an iron chain. |
| [02:51.773] |
He fired a shot at Kelly, which brought him to the ground, |
| [02:59.970] |
and he fired point blank at Davis who fell dead at the sound. |
| [03:08.169] |
A bullet pierced the broad young heart from the pistol of Fitzroy. |
| [03:16.091] |
And that was how they captured him, the Wild Colonial Boy. |
| [03:24.652] |
We'll roam the mountains and the glens, and we'll ride across the plains. |
| [03:32.515] |
We scorn to live in slavery bound down by an iron chain. |
