Wild Colonial Boy
Joe "Fingers" Webster & His River City Jazzmen
GENRE [Verse 1]
There was a wild Colonial Boy
Jack Doolan was his name
Of poor but honest parents, he
Was born in Castlemaine
He was his father's only, oh!
His mother's pride and joy
And dearly did his parents love
The wild Colonial Boy
[Verse 2]
And at the age of sixteen years
He left his native home
And through Australia's sunny climes
A bushranger did roam
He'd rob those wealthy squatters
Their stock he did destroy
A terror to Australia was
The wild Colonial Boy
