Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport lyrics

Miscellaneous
Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport
(spoken:)
There's an old Australian stockman lying dying,
And he gets himself up on to one elbow,
And he turns to his mates, who are gathered 'round him
And he says:

1. Watch me wallaby's feed, mate,
Watch me wallaby's feed.
They're a dangerous breed, mate,
So watch me wallaby's feed.
Altogether now:

(chorus:)
Tie me kangaroo down, sport,
Tie me kangaroo down.
Tie me kangaroo down, sport,
Tie me kangaroo down.
Altogther now:

2.Keep me cockatoo cool, Curl,
Keep me cockatoo cool.
Don't go acting the fool, Curl,
Just keep me cockatoo cool.
Altogether now:

3.Take me koala back, Jack,
Take me koala back.
He lives somewhere out on the track, Mac,**
So take me koala back.
Altogether now:

4. Let me abos go loose, Lew,
Let me abos go loose.
They're of no further use, Lew,
So let me abos go loose.
Altogether now:

5. Mind me platypus duck, Bill,
Mind me platypus duck.
Don't let him go running amok, Bill,
Mind me platypus duck.
Altogether now:

6. Play your didgeridoo, Blue
Play your didgeridoo.
Keep playing 'till I shoot thro', Blue,
Play your didgeridoo.
All together now:

(get progressively slower, quieter, almost reverent:)
7. Tan me hide when I'm dead, Fred,
Tan me hide when I'm dead.
So we tanned his hide when he died, Clyde,
(spoken)
And that's it hanging on the shed!
Altogether now......

(ghostly singing, volume fading to nil)
Tie me kangaroo down, sport,
Tie me kangaroo down.
Tie me kangaroo down, sport,
Tie me kangaroo downnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.
(Long sigh)

** Some versions "He lives out in the outback, Mac,"
Some say a "Didgeridoo" is a musical instrument. Some don't.
