Chorus:
G D A7
Four rode by
G D A7 D G D A7 D A7 D
Rode through here, three Mc lean boys and that wild Alex Hare
They were armed
All were armed, it was them I'd have known them anywhere
D G D A7 D
Oh, Willie Palmer's stallion was no twenty dollar cayuse
And when the wild ones stole him he hightailed it into town
Usher in those days was keeping order in the district
But before he'd ridden thirty miles the McLean boys shot him down
chorus:
A shepherd known as Kelly saw the wild ones as they passed
They shot him with a rifle and took his watch and chain
When a posse found them in a lonely cabin
A hunger took their fight away and no one else was slain
chorus:
They hanged those boys in January eighteen eighty-one
The first time in the province that they'd strung up brothers three
A son killed nineteen Germans cross the seas back in seventeen
One thing that's for damned sure they're a wild old family
Chorus:
Four rode by
Rode through here, three Mclean boys and that wild Alex Hare
They were armed
All were armed, it was them I'd have known them anywhere
