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