Lyrics

The Old Bullock Dray Now the shearing is all over, and the wool is coming down I mean to get a wife, boys, when I go into town For everything has got a mate that brings itself to view From the little pademelon to the big kangaroo So roll up your bundle and let us make a push And I'll take you up the country and show you the bush I'll be bound such a chance you won't get another day So roll up and take possession of the old bullock dray The Snake Gully Swagger Everybody 'round the place will dance to it It's gonna set the pace, so prancе to it It's a snifter, body-lifter The Snakе Gully Swagger Every tramp along the road can sway to it And farmers help to load the dray to it It's a spry dance, dinky-di dance The Snake Gully Swagger Even old mates are prim, are getting into trim By doing it now And Ted Ramsay's out, despite a touch of gout Doing steps with his wife by now And everybody in the land will sing to it And every rhythm band will swing to it There's a possie in their Aussie For the Snake Gully Swagger Game as Ned Kelly There's a name that Australia will never forget The best known Australian, I'd sure like to bet Though granted, its owner dishonored his name Yet one thing is certain, Ned Kelly was game Game as Ned Kelly, the people would say Game as Ned Kelly, they say it today Oh, great was their fame when the Kelly boys rode Those daring bushrangers with no fixed abode They laughed at the law, a big price on their head The troopers could never catch up with wild Ned Game as Ned Kelly, the people would say Game as Ned Kelly, they say it today Woolloomooloo Double-U, double-O, double-L, O O, M, double-O, L, O-O Upon my word, it's true That's the way to spell Woolloomooloo I'll bet you a dollar there isn't a scholar Can spell it right, let's go, now Double-U, double-O, double-L, O O, M, double-O, L, O-O
