Lyrics

[Part I: Click Go the Shears] [Verse 1] Out on the board the old shearer stands Grasping the shears in his thin, bony hands Fixed is his gaze on a bare-bellied Joe Glory if he gets her, won't he make the ringer go! [Chorus] Click go the shears, boys, click, click, click Wide is his blow and his hands move quick The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow And curses the old snagger with the bare-bellied Joe [Verse 2] Shearing is all over and we've all got our cheques Roll up your swag, boys, we'rе off on the tracks The first pub we comе to, it's there we'll have a spree And everyone who comes along, it's, "Come and drink with me" [Chorus] Click go the shears, boys, click, click, click Wide is his blow and his hands move quick The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow And curses the old snagger with the bare-bellied Joe [Part II: The Overlander Trail] [Chorus] We're on the Overlander, Overlander trail Where only sheer determination will prevail Men of Aussie with a job to do So they'll stick and drive the cattle through And though they sweat and curse, they know they surely must Keep on the trail that winds ahead through heat and dust All sons of Aussie and they will not fail They're on the Overlander, Overlander trail [Part III: Waltzing Matilda] [Verse 1] Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong Under the shade of a coolibah tree And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me [Chorus] Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me" And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me" [Verse 2] Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me [Chorus] Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me" And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me [Outro] You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me"
