Pills of White Mercury
Dave Gunning
G# A#m C# D#
As I was walking by the banks of the Ugie
G# A#m C# D#
Come my dear fellows and a story I will tell
G# A#m C# D#
I spied a dear comrade, dressed in white flannel
G# C# D# G#
Dressed in white flannel and cruel was his fate
G# A#m C# D#
The mercury was beating, the limestone was reeking
G# A#m C# D#
His tongue all in flamed hung over his chin
G# A#m C# D#
With a hole in his bosom, his teeth were a closin'
G# C# D# G#
Bad luck to the girl who gave it to him
[Chorus]
G# A#m C# D#
And had she but told me, when she dis honoured me
G# A#m C# D#
Had she but told me of it in time
G# A#m C# D#
I might have been cured by those pills of white mercury
G# C# D# G#
But now I'm a young man cut down in my prime
G# A#m C# D#
My parents they warned me and oftimes they chided
G# A#m C# D#
With those young flash girls do not sport and play
G# A#m C# D#
But I never listened, no I never heeded
G# C# D# G# Chorus
I just carried on in my own wicked way
G# A#m C# D#
It was down on the corner two flash girls were talking
G# A#m C# D#
One to the other in a whisper did say
G# A#m C# D#
There goes that young man who once was so jolly
G# C# D# G# Chorus
But now for his sins his poor body must pay
G# A#m C# D#
Oh doctor, dear doctor be fore you de parture
G# A#m C# D#
Take all these bottles of mercury away
G# A#m C# D#
And send for the minister to say a prayer over me
G# C# D# G#
Then you can lay my poor body in the clay
G# A#m C# D#
Now get you six fellows to carry my coffin
G# A#m C# D#
Six pretty fair maids to bear up my pall
G# A#m C# D#
And give each of them a bunch of red roses
G# C# D# G# Chorus
So when they pass by me they'll not know the smell
