DROVERS DREAM I was traveling with my sheep and my mates were fast asleep No moon or stars were shining in the sky I was dozing I suppose but my eyes had hardly closed When a very strange procession passed me by First came a kangaroo with his swag of blankets blue He had with him a dingo for a mate They were traveling pretty fast and they shouted as they passed We've got to be getting home it's getting late Then three frogs from out of the swamp where the atmosphere is damp Came up and gently sat down on the stones They unrolled their little swags and took from their dilly bags A fiddle. a banjo and some bones Then a little bandicoot played a tune upon the flute Three koala bears came down and formed a ring And the pelican and the crane they flew in from the plain And amused the company with a highland fling Then three parrots in their joy sang the Wild Colonial Boy A frilly lizard waltzed round with a smile Then from out the old she oak a laughing jackass spoke And spare me happy days he ran a mile Then the emu standing near with his claw up to his ear Sang Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep I was underneath the cart, the boss woke me with a start Saying Clancy where the hell are the flaming sheep @Australian @animal filename[ DROVDREM BS apr00 |
