《The Wild Colonial Boy》歌词

[00:00:00] Wild Colonial Boy - Shannon Singers

[00:00:08] There was a wild colonial boy,

[00:00:12] Jack Doogan was his name

[00:00:16] He was born and raised in Ireland,

[00:00:20] In a place called Castle Maine

[00:00:24] He was his father's only hope,

[00:00:28] His mother's pride and joy

[00:00:32] And dearly did his parents love,

[00:00:36] The wild colonial boy

[00:00:40] At the early age of sixteen years,

[00:00:44] He left his native home,

[00:00:48] And to Australia's sunny shores,

[00:00:52] He was inclined to roam,

[00:00:56] He went and robbed the stagecoach,

[00:01:00] He shot James McEvoy,

[00:01:04] A terror to Australia was the

[00:01:08] Wild colonial boy.

[00:01:12] One morning on the prairie,

[00:01:16] As Jack he rode along

[00:01:20] A-listening to the mocking bird,

[00:01:24] A-singing a cheerful song

[00:01:28] Up stepped a band of troopers:

[00:01:32] Kelly, Davis and Fitzroy

[00:01:36] They all set out to capture him,

[00:01:40] The wild colonial boy

[00:01:44] Surrender now, Jack Duggan,

[00:01:47] For you see we're three to one

[00:01:52] Surrender in the Queen's high name,

[00:01:56] You are a plundering son

[00:02:00] Jack drew two pistols from his belt,

[00:02:04] He proudly waved them high

[00:02:08] I'll fight, but not surrender,

[00:02:11] Said the wild colonial boy

[00:02:16] He fired a shot at Kelly and

[00:02:20] Brought him to the ground,

[00:02:24] He fired a shot at Davis too,

[00:02:28] Who fell dead upon the sound,

[00:02:32] But a bullet pierced his proud

[00:02:35] Young heart, from the pistol of Fitzroy

[00:02:40] And that is how they captured him,

[00:02:44] The Wild Colonial Boy.
