The Bold Rumjacker |
Well, i am just come down through sydney town jacking rum for a penny so me |
botany bound. |
my penance paid, my liberty found. |
i’ll take me a life of leisure |
I were told by a wealthy american man «better get you to van demons' land, |
there’s a bevy of beauties, bonnet in hand, and there’s no' enough boys to |
please them» |
I’m a heedrum hoedrum, scaliwag and hoodlum. |
come now lassie, won’t you take my |
hand? |
you’re a top weed cracker, i’m a bold rum jacker, with 2 fish suppers and |
a parafin lamp |

I’m scottish born and australian bred, i’m strong in the arm and soft in the |
head though i’m a gatlin gun, in your manito bed and your rogue gonna dinnae |
fear her |
Oh, i love like a devil and i fight like hell. |
if the left doesn’t take you |
then the right one will. |
i’ll swing like a bloody cathedral bell and i’ll share |
you a jar a quarte |
I’m a heedrum hoedrum, scaliwag and hoodlum come now lassie, won’t you take my |
hand? |
you’re a top weed cracker, i’m a bold rum jacker, with 2 fish suppers and |
a parafin lamp |
We’ll see if you feel the same tonight when your stripped to your boots by the |
cold moonlight, when you’re slappin my face and pullin me tight beggin' john |
«don't ever leave me» |
You’re a a heedrum hoedrum, scaliwag and hoodlum. |
come now laddie, |
should i take your hand? |
bring a bottle of buffy and you might get lucky with |
2 fish suppers and a parafin lamp |
I’m a heedrum hoedrum, scaliwag and hoodlum. |
come now lassie, won’t you take my |
hand. |
you’re a top weed cracker i’m a bold rum jacker, with two fish suppers |
and a parafin lamp |
