Lyrics

You've heard of Dick Turpin and bold Robin Hood
I'm known as one of the clique
A bit of a gangster, a terror to all
The lads call me Daredevil Dick
I'm fond of a fight, over fighting I gloat
I'm always the first to hold anyone's coat
Daredevil Dick, up to every trick
Daredevil Dick, that's me
Only last week without saying a word
I travelled first class when my ticket was third
I'm a demon, I'm a devil, me care
Full of villainy
Full fare on me ticket, they soon made me pay
But I got me own back the very next day
I bought two first class tickets and walked all the way
Daredevil Dick, that's me
Daredevil Dick, up to every trick
Daredevil Dick, that's me
With a girl on a raft I was wrecked on the seas
I was in a short shirt, she wore a chemise
Hoist a signal, soon she started to shout
And save us from the sea
I took off me shirt, they won't see that she raved
So I grabbed her chemise, on the mast it soon waved
When she smiled I said "Gee, I don't want to be saved"
Daredevil Dick, that's me
Daredevil Dick, up to every trick
Daredevil Dick, that's me
For a picnic I went with me sweetie one day
We romped in the fields and we sat in the hay
It was lovely, 'til she cried in alarm
"There's a bumblebee!"
"Oh, be brave and find it," I shouted out, "Where?"
She said, "Where I'm sitting, it's underneath there!"
I got stung on the hand, ah, but I didn't care
Daredevil Dick, that's me
