There's an Australian stockman lying dying. But he gets himself up on
one elbow and turns to his mates and says--
Watch me wallabies feed, mate.
Watch me wallabies feed;
They're a dangerous breed, mate,
So watch me wallabies feed.
Chorus:
All together now;
Tie me kangaroo down, sport,
Tie me kangaroo down,
Tie me kangaroo down, sport,
Tie me kangaroo down.
Keep me cockatoo cool, curl
Keep me cockatoo cool
Don't go acting the fool, curl
Keep me cockatoo cool.
Take me koala back, Jack.
Take me koala back.
He lives somewhere outback, Jack,
So take me koala back.
Let me aboos go loose Lew.
Let me aboos go loose.
They're of no further use, Lew.
So let me aboos go loose.
Mind me platypus duck, Bill;
Mind me platypus duck.
Don't let him run amok, Bill,
So mind me platypus duck.
Play your didgeridoo, Blue,
Play your didgeridoo.
Keep playing till I’m thru, Blue,
Play your didgeridoo.
Tan me hide when I'm dead, Fred,
Tan me hide when I'm dead.
So we tanned his hide when he died, Clyde.
And that's it hanging on the shed.
