It's all about bold Frank Gardiner with the devil in his eye 
He said "We've work before us lads we've got to do or die 
So blacken up your faces before the dead of night 
And its over by Eugowra Rocks we'll either fall or fight" 

Chorus: You can sing of Johnny Gilbert Dan Morgan and Ben Hall
But the bold and reckless Gardiner he's the boy to beat them all 

We'll stop the Orange escort with powder and with ball 
We'll shoot the coach to pieces and we'll down the peelers all 
We'll lift the diggers' money we'll collar all their gold 
So mind your guns are killers now my comrades true and bold.

So now off go the rifles the battle has begun 
The escort started running boys all in the setting sun 
The robbers seized their plunder so saucy and so bold 
And they're riding from Eugowra Rocks encumbered with their gold 

And as with savage laughter they left that fatal place 
They cried "We've struck bonanza boys we've won the steeplechase!" 
And Gardiner their leader he shouted a loud "Hooray 
I think we've made our fortunes at Eugowra Rocks today"
