When first we left old England's shores [00:00:06]
Such yarns as we were told [00:00:08]
As how folks in Australia [00:00:11]
Could pick up lumps of gold [00:00:14]
So when we got to Melbourne Town [00:00:17]
We were ready soon to slip [00:00:19]
And get even with the captain [00:00:21]
We scuttled from the ship [00:00:25]
With my swag all on my shoulder [00:00:28]
Black billy in my hand [00:00:30]
I travelled the bush of Australia [00:00:32]
Like a true born native man [00:00:36]
We steered our course for Portland Town [00:00:39]
Then north west of Ballarat [00:00:41]
Where some of us got mighty thin [00:00:43]
And some got sleek and fat [00:00:47]
Some tried their luck at Bindigo [00:00:50]
And some at Fiery Creek [00:00:52]
I made a fortune in a day [00:00:54]
And spent it in a week [00:00:58]
With my swag all on my shoulder [00:01:01]
Black billy in my hand [00:01:03]
I travelled the bush of Australia [00:01:05]
Like a true born native man [00:01:09]
So round the tucker tracks I tramp [00:01:11]
Nor leave them out of sight [00:01:14]
My swag's on my left shoulder [00:01:16]
And then upon my right [00:01:19]
And then I take it on my back [00:01:23]
And oft upon it lie [00:01:25]
These are the best of tucker tracks [00:01:27]
So I'll stay here till I die [00:01:31]
With my swag all on my shoulder [00:01:34]
Black billy in my hand [00:01:36]
I travelled the bush of Australia [00:01:38]
Like a true born native man [00:01:42]
I travelled the bush of Australia Australia [00:01:45]
Like a true born native man [00:01:51]
