C
Dm
There was a wild colonial boy,
G
C
Jack Doolin was his name.
Dm
Of poor but honest parents,
G
C
he was born in Castle Main.
Dm
He was his father's only hope
G
C
and his mother's pride and joy.
Dm
So dearly did his parents love
G
their wild colonial boy
C
Dm
So come away, my hearties,
G
C
we'll range the mountainside
Dm
Together we will plunder
G
C
and together we will ride
Dm
We'll cross the wild blue mountains
G
C
And we'll scour the baffled plains
Dm
We scorn to live in slavery
G
C
Bound down with iron chains
He was scarcely sixteen
G
C
When he left his father's home
Dm
And through Australia's sunny clime,
G
C
a bushranger did roam.
Dm
He robbed those wealthy squatters,
G
and their stock he did destroy.
C
Dm
And a terror to the rich man
G
C
was the wild colonial boy.
Dm
In sixty -one this daring youth
G
C
Commenced his wild career
Dm
With a heart that knew no danger
G
C
No foeman did he fear
Dm
He stuck up the Beechworth mail coach
G
And he robbed Judge McAvoy
C
Dm
Who, trembling cold, gave up his gold
G
C
To the wild Cologne yule boy.
Dm
One day as he was ridin'
G
C
the mountainside along,
Dm
A -listenin' to that kookaburra's
G
C
happy lovin' song,
Dm
He spied three mounted troopers,
G
C
Kelly Davis and Fitzroy.
Dm
Wide enough to capture him,
G
C
the wild colonial boy.
Dm
Surrender now, Jack Doolan,
G
Dm
G
C
for you see there's three to one.
Dm
Surrender in the Queen's name,
G
C
for you're a plunderin' son
Dm
Jack drew a pistol for all his belt,
G
C
and he waved it like a toy
Dm
I'll fight, but I'll never surrender,
G
cried the wild colonial boy
C
Dm
He fired at Trooper Kelly,
G
C
and he brought him to the ground
Dm
And in return from Davis,
G
C
he received a mortal wound
Dm
All shattered through the jaws he lay,
G
still firing at Fitzroy
C
Dm
And that's the way they cap tured him,
C
Dm
So come away, my hearties,
G
C
we'll raise the mountains high
Dm
Together we will plunder,
G
C
and together we will ride
Dm
We'll cross the wild blue mountains
G
C
And we'll scour the Bathurst plains
Dm
For we scorn to live in slavery
G
C
Bound down with iron chains
