Subject: RE: Tie Me Kangaroo Down'let Abos go'explain
I remember a 45 record with "Tie Me Kangaroo Down" on one side and on the flip side was a song that started, " Now I met a man the other day and he was dressed in a very strange way, with a great big hat with a big black brim....and around his ankle was a big black chain and dragging on the chain was a big black ball." Any one know who recorded it, what the title of the song is and what are the lyrics? Thanks, Pagan

John Gray- At the same time the Aborigines were being paid with script, so were the coal miners of Appalachia. Many of them were also people who had been displaced from their land.
