[Verso 1]
They turned him out of Beechworth jail in 1871
He put in three long years behind those walls
For the stealing of a horse
Which he swore he never done
But now he sees the sun, and turns his back upon it all
{PreChorus 1}
Walk softly cried the magistrate
who counted up the score
Walk softly cried the turnkey
as he clanged the iron door
Walk softly cried his comrades
cringing on - that prison floor
[Refrão]
But the summers on the meadow
And the wind is in the gum tree
And the Beechworth jail is many miles
behind you
[Verso 2]
On a prison ship in shackles
his father reached this land
He stole one pig and for that crime he paid
Inside a cold dark prison cell he died a broken man
And he left his wife to curse the crown while his children dug his grave
{PreChorus 2}
Speak softly cried the jailer
laying slop upon his plate
Speak softly cried the turnkey
as he opened up the gate
Speak softly cried his mother
its been all - so long to wait
[Refrão]
But the summers on the meadow
And the wind is in the gum tree
And the Beechworth jail is many miles
behind you
[Verso 3]
They told him it was over
And his song was damn-well sung
They told him wild Australiad have to change
And hed better watch his temper
And hed better mind his tongue
For the next time that he walked inside those gates hed surely hang
{PreChorus 3}
Speak boldly cried his father
from the grave in which he lay
Speak boldly cried his country
theres a trust thats been betrayed
Speak boldly cried his conscience
Theres a debt - and it must be paid
[Refrão]
But the summers on the meadow
And the wind is in the gum tree
And the Beechworth jail is many miles
behind you
