Dead Horse #Rogue's Gallery lyrics

Poor old man came ridin’ along

And we say so,

And we hope so.

Poor old man came ridin’ along

Poor old man.

Well poor old man your horse he must die

And we say so,

And we hope so.

Poor old man your horse he must die

Poor old man.

Well 30 days have come and gone

And we say so,

And we hope so.

30 days have come and gone

Poor old man.

And now we are on a good month’s pay

And we say so,

And we hope so.

I think I hear our wharfing man say

Poor old man.

So give them grog for the 30th day

And we say so,

And we hope so.

Give them their grog for the 30th day

Poor old man.

Then up hail ox to the old main yard arm

And we say so,

And we hope so.

Then cut him drip and do him no harm

Poor old man.

A poor old man came ridin’ along
