Rebels Like Ned : Lyric Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

 

 

 

True he was a rebel too wild to employ ,

its true he was an outlaw the wild colonial boy .’

 

He won the hearts of many and he lost a friend or two ,

he found a place to make a stand a rebel through and through .

 

They shot him and they hung him but they still could not destroy

the memory of Ned Kelly the wild colonial boy

 

 

A Saddle for the rebel on a horse bred to annoy

the pace of life that could not cop the wild colonial boy .

 

Rebels like Ned are running so free across the sky

 on ghost horses away up high 

 right of wrong the fight goes on for rebels like

Ned they never die

 

the story of Ned Kelly is a  sad one all the same

locked up inside his Mothers heart

a a prisoner in the flame

 

For Rebels like Ned they just never die

They’re running free across the sky

on ghost horses away up high 

right of wrong the fight goes on for rebels like

Ned they never die

running so free across the sky

on ghost horses away up high 

running free

Rebels like Ned they just never die .
