(In Australia a bandit or an outlaw was called a bushranger
One of Australia's most infamous bushrangers was a man named Ned Kelly)
[Verse 1]
CNed Kelly was a Gwild young bush Cranger
Out of FVictoria he Crode with his brother GDan
He Floved his people Cand he loved his Ffreedom
And he Dloved to ride the wide open Gland
CNed Kelly was a Gvictim of the Cchanges
That Fcame when his Cland was a sprout and Gseed
And the Fwrongs he did were Cmultiplied in Flegend
With Gyoung Australia growing like a Cweed
[Chorus]
Ned FKelly took the Cblame Ned GKelly won the Cfame
Ned FKelly brought the Cshame And Gthen Ned Kelly Changed
[Verse 2]
CWell he hid out in the Gbush and in the Cforest
And he Floved to hear the Cwind blow in the Gtrees
While Fthe men behind the Cbadge were coming for Fhim
Ned Dsaid they'll never bring me to my Gknees
CBut everything was Gchanged and run in Ccycles
And FNed knew that his Cday was at an Gend
He made Fa suit of armour Cout of ploughshFares
But Ned was brought down by the trooper's men
[Chorus]
Ned FKelly took the Cblame Ned GKelly won the Cfame
Ned FKelly brought the Cshame And Gthen Ned Kelly Changed
