_ _ _ _ _ _ You morning sportsmen I pray you draw near To a few simple verses you quaintly shall hear
It's the days of a hero that lives near Bally Bay And they call him Hugh Jackson [Cm] I [Bb] hear people say
His mill kills [Cm] and barns he do [Bb] got a great show And his claws [Fm] to the north and [Gm] the city does go
At bleaching and lapping [Eb] he does beat them all And his [Gm] cloth was first approved of in Dalyning Hall
[Eb] _
[Bb] And _ _ _ [Cm] _ [Gm] _ _
more of his praises [Bb] I'm made to explain So if you will assist me I'll [Fm] sing about Jane
Sir Charlene the lover [Bb] from Carthage [Eb] he'll dare [Fm] And you'll ne'er find a [Cm] match for Hugh [Bb] Jackson's grey mare
He went to the stable to the Mary they say The hour is approaching and we must away
For a cup [F] at Coot's Hill you [Bb] have twice won the fame And this day we are shallin' [Eb] you [Gm] must run again
She [Fm] _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ turned in the stable and she cast an eye round As for Squire Jackson he lies on the ground
I'm afraid that poor Currie by Spanker was through And the rest of your [Eb] opponents they [Bb] are not yet in view
The jockeys were mounted and all in a row And if you had been there when off they did go
The bets they were makin' ten guineas to four That the cup back to Currie would reach her _ nevermore _

_ _ When Jane she haired this while her metal did writhe Over hedges and ditches like lightning she flies
And with a loud ne'er these words she did say You bellum on [Eb] sportsmen [Bb] now so is the way
When Jane and her jockey were half round the course Miss Jane and her jockey began to discord
Said Miss Jane to her jockey kind sir let me know Where are my [Eb] opponents [Bb] or are they in view
She _ _ _ _ _ _ _ turned in the saddle and [Bb] he cast an eye round As for Squire Adams he lies on the ground
I'm afraid that poor Currie by Spanker [Gm] was through And the rest of your [Eb] opponents they are not yet [Bb] in view
When Jane she haired this while [Eb] she went in [Bb] at her race And into the school the banners was laid
And all was surrounded for Jackson and [Cm] Jane And [Fm] the cup [Gm] went with honours back to Currie once again
