There's an old Australian stockman lying, dying. |
|
He gets himself up onto one elbow |
|
and he turns to his mates, |
|
who are all gathered around |
|
And he says: |
|
Watch me wallabies feed, mate |
|
Watch me wallabies feed |
|
They're a dangerous breed, mate |
|
So watch me wallabies feed |
|
Altogether now! |
