Flash Jack from Gundagai (1960)

Lyrics
I've shore at Burrabogie and I've shore at Toganmain I've shore at big Willandra and out on the Coleraine But before the shearing was over I wished I was back again Shearin' for old Tom Patterson, on the One-Tree Plain [Chorus] All among the wool, boys, all among the wool Keep your blades full, boys, keep your blades full I can do a respectable tally meself whenever I like to try And I'm known around the country as Flash Jack from Gundagai I've shore at big Willandra, and I've shore at Tilberoo And once I drew me blades, boys, upon the famous Barcoo At Cowan Downs and Trida, and far as Moulamein And I was always glad to get back again on the One-Tree Plain I've pinked them with the Wolseleys and I've rushed with B-bows too I've shaved them in the grease, boys, with the grass seed showin' through I never slummed a pen, me lads, for whatever it might contain When shearin' for old Tom Patterson, on the One-Tree Plain I've been whalin' up the Lachlan and I've dossed on Cooper's Creek And once I rung Cudjingie shed and blued it in a week And when Gabriel blows his trumpet, lads, I'll catch the morning train And I'll push for old Tom Patterson's on the One-Tree Plain [Chorus] All among the wool, boys, all among the wool Keep your blades full, boys, keep your blades full I can do a respectable tally meself whenever I like to try And I'm known around the country as Flash Jack from Gundagai
