    Remember the Australian middleweight Les Darcy now he was a puncher, died young could have been an ATG.

    His name was Les Darcy
    He came from Maitland Town
    Fists like two pile-drivers
    Knocked all comers down.

    The papers said he was a skiter
    He'd soon be on the ropes
    But he proved he was a tiger
    He raised all their hopes...

    Every Saturday night
    Australia's bonny boy
    Would fight for the crowd.
    He fought in the fairground sideshows
    And the crowds all roared for more
    He won his buckles in the big time
    On that Sydney Stadium floor

    He beat the finest fighters
    They sent from across the world
    And all the papers said he might be
    Champion of the world ...

    Every Saturday night
    Australia's bonny boy
    Would fight for the crowd.
    The bugles blew in Nineteen-fourteen
    But he was too young to serve
    The papers said his country called him
    White feathers tried his nerve.

    The night before he came of age,
    Les Darcy stowed away
    On a rusty tramp out of Newcastle
    Bound for the USA ...

    On that Saturday night
    Australia's bonny boy
    Cried for the crowd.

    All the big-time American promoters
    Said they'd put him in the champions' ring
    But the papers called him 'coward'
    Only Vaudeville fights to win.

    So he joined the US Army;
    A Yankee fighter he had to be.
    Broke his heart while he was training
    Way down in Tennessee ...

    On that Saturday night
    Australia's bonny boy
    Died for the crowd.

    They shipped his body home with honour
    A headline hero young and brave
    Thousands walked behind his casket
    To one more martyr's grave.

    His name was Les Darcy
    He lies in Maitland's ground
    Colder than the hearts who floored him
    But his legend won't stay down ...

    Every Saturday night
    Australia's bonny boy
    Fights...
    Cries...
    Dies
    For the crowd.

    cheers mate !
