Listen for a moment,lads, |
| [00:16.36] |
and hear me tell my tale |
| [00:19.64] |
How over the sea from England shore |
| [00:22.69] |
I was condemned to sail |
| [00:26.24] |
The jury found me guilty sir |
| [00:29.45] |
And said the judge, said he: |
| [00:34.32] |
For life, Jim Jones, |
| [00:36.37] |
I’ll sentence you across the stormy sea |
| [00:41.45] |
|
| [00:43.00] |
But take my tip before you ship to join the iron gang |
| [00:49.64] |
Don't be too gay in Botany Bay |
| [00:53.00] |
or else you'll surely hang |
| [00:57.57] |
Or else you'll surely hang, said he, |
| [01:00.77] |
and after that, Jim Jones |
| [01:05.23] |
High up...High upon... |
| [01:09.79] |
High upon the gallows tree |
| [01:13.43] |
the crows will pick your bones |
| [01:17.51] |
|
| [01:19.35] |
You'll have no chance for mischief then, |
| [01:22.46] |
remember what I say |
| [01:25.93] |
They'll flog the poaching out of you |
| [01:29.21] |
out there on Botany Bay |
| [01:32.53] |
Waves are high upon the sea, |
| [01:35.62] |
the wind blows in gales |
| [01:40.41] |
I'd rather drowned in misery |
| [01:43.95] |
than come to New South Wales |
| [01:48.08] |
|
| [01:48.40] |
The wind blew high upon the sea |
| [01:52.00] |
when the pirates came along |
| [01:55.23] |
But the soldiers on our convict ship |
| [01:58.00] |
were full five hundred strong |
| [02:02.09] |
They opened fire and somehow drove that pirate ship away |
| [02:10.00] |
I'd rather joined that pirate ship |
| [02:13.64] |
than gone to Botany Bay |
| [02:17.34] |
|
| [02:19.23] |
And one dark night when everything is quiet in the town |
| [02:26.09] |
I'll kill you bastards one and all, |
| [02:29.81] |
and I’ll gun the floggers down |
| [02:33.29] |
I'll give the law one little shock, |
| [02:36.29] |
remember what I say |
| [02:40.96] |
They'll yet regret they've sent Jim Jones |
| [02:43.39] |
in chains to Botany Bay |
| [02:48.42] |
|
| [02:51.30] |
Ruth : that’s the one you like to sing in the stagecoach ,hah? |
| [02:57.49] |
Domergue: em |
| [02:58.95] |
Ruth :It’s kinda pretty, you gotta another verse to it? |
| [03:03.34] |
Domergue: yeah, lots. |
| [03:06.38] |
Ruth :I know. Go ahead, sing it. |
| [03:12.82] |
Domergue: whatever you say, John |
| [03:18.15] |
|
| [03:19.00] |
Now day and night the irons clang |
| [03:22.77] |
and like poor galley slaves |
| [03:26.20] |
We toil and toil, and when we die |
| [03:29.58] |
must fill dishonored graves |
| [03:33.12] |
But by and by I'll break my chains into the bush I'll go |
| [03:40.78] |
and you’ll be dead behind me John when I get to Mexico |
| [03:56.13] |
|
| [03:56.45] |
Ruth :give me that guitar |
| [04:01.00] |
music time’s over |
