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