There was a wild colonial boy, Jack Duggan was his name
                          E    E7                          A
He was born and raised in Ireland, in a place called Castlemaine
                    E    E7                          A
He was his father's only son, his mother's pride and joy
                   D                E      E7     A
And dearly did his parents love the wild colonial boy
 
       A            D                E7              A
At the early age of sixteen years he left his native home
                   E     E7                         A
And to Australia's sunny shores, he was inclined to roam
                       E          E7                     A
He robbed the rich, he helped the poor, he shot James MacEvoy
               D              E      E7     A
A terror to Australia was the wild colonial boy

One morning on the prairie, as Jackie rode along
                   E       E7                           A
While listening to the mocking bird, singing a cheerful song
                     E               E7             A
Up jumped a band of troopers: Kelly, Davis and Fitzroy
                    D                E      E7     A
They all set out to capture him, the wild colonial boy
 
  A             D                   E7                 A
Surrender now, Jack Duggan, for you see we're three to one
                 E           E7                         A
Surrender in the King's high name, you are a plundering son
                      E        E7                          A
Jack drew two pistols from his belt, and proudly waved them high
                    D                   E      E7     A
I'll fight, but not surrender, said the wild colonial boy
 
   A               D            E7                        A
He fired a shot at Kelly, which brought him right to the ground
                     E      E7                  A
And turning round to Davis, he received a fatal wound
                     E           E7                           A
A bullet pierced his proud young heart, from the pistol of Fitzroy
                      D                 E      E7     A
And that was how they captured him, the wild colonial boy
