It's [G] of a wild colonial boy Jack Dolan was his name Of poor but honest _ parents he was
born in Castle Main He was his father's only hope, his [D] mother's
pride and joy [E] And so [Gm] dearly did his parents love the wild
[F] colonial _ [C] boy When scarcely sixteen _ years of age Jack left
his father's home And to _ Australia's sunny clime bush range
in he would roam He'd rob [G] the lordly _ squatters, their flocks
he would [B] _ destroy Oh what [D] terror to _ Australia was the wild colonial
boy In sixty-one this daring youth commenced
his wild [Db] career With a heart that knew [G] no _ danger, no stranger
[C] would he fear [G] He bailed out the Beechworth Role Mail coach
and robbed Judge _ [Fm] McAvoy Who _ trembled and [Bbm] gave up his gold [C] to the
wild colonial boy He [G] bade the judge good morning and told him
to beware _ He'd never rob a poor man who acted [C] on the
square But a judge that robbed a [G] mother of her only
[D] pride and joy Well he was worse of an outlaw than the wild
colonial [G]
boy One day as Jack was _ riding the mountain sides
along _ _ Listening to the [A] _
kookaburras pleasant [D] laughing
song Three mounted troopers came [A] inside Kelly
Davis and [Eb] Fitzroy Who thought that [G] they would capture him the
wild colonial boy _ [E] Surrender now [D] Jack _ Doolan you [C] see we're [G] three
to one _ _ Surrender in the Queen's name you daring [D] _ highwayman
Jack drew [E] his pistol from his belt [D] and weaved it like a toy
I'll fight [Fm] but not [N] surrender cried the wild colonial boy
So come [D] along me _ Hodgies [C] we'll roam the _ mountainside
[B] _ Together _ [G] we will plunder [B] together we will ride
[C] We'll scour along the _ valleys and gather for the _ flames
[E] And scorn to live [Fm] in _ slavery found down my island chains _
