Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport - The Brothers Four

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!
