《Click Go the Shears》歌词

[00:00:00] Click go the shears boys click click click

[00:00:01] Wide is his blow and his hands move quick

[00:00:02] The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow

[00:00:03] And curses the old snagger with the bare bellied joe

[00:00:04] Out on the board the old shearer stands

[00:00:05] Grasping his shears in his thin bony hands

[00:00:06] Fixed is his eye on a bare bellied joe

[00:00:06] Glory if he gets her won't he make the ringer go

[00:00:08] Click go the shears boys click click click

[00:00:09] Wide is his blow and his hands move quick

[00:00:11] The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow

[00:00:15] And curses the old snagger with the bare bellied joe

[00:00:18] In the middle of the floor in his cane bottomed chair

[00:00:19] Sits the boss of the board with his eyes everywhere

[00:00:20] Notes well each fleece as it comes to the screen

[00:00:21] Paying strict attention that it's taken off clean

[00:00:23] Click go the shears boys click click click

[00:00:24] Wide is his blow and his hands move quick

[00:00:25] The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow

[00:00:26] And curses the old snagger with the bare bellied joe

[00:00:28] The tar boy is there waiting in demand

[00:00:29] With his blackened tar pot in his tarry hand

[00:00:31] Spies one old sheep with a cut upon its back

[00:00:32] Hears what he's waiting for it's Tar here Jack

[00:00:34] Click go the shears boys click click click

[00:00:38] Wide is his blow and his hands move quick

[00:00:42] The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow

[00:00:45] And curses the old snagger with the bare bellied joe

[00:00:48] The colonial experience man he is there of course

[00:00:51] With his shiny leggin's on just got off his horse

[00:00:52] Gazes all around him like a real connoisseur

[00:00:53] Scented soap and brilliantine and smelling like a w***e

[00:00:55] Click go the shears boys click click click

[00:00:56] Wide is his blow and his hands move quick

[00:00:57] The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow

[00:00:58] And curses the old snagger with the bare bellied joe

[00:00:59] Now the shearing is all over we've all got our cheques

[00:01:01] So roll up your swags and it's off down the track

[00:01:02] The first pub we come to it's there we'll have a spree

[00:01:03] And everyone that comes along it's Have a drink with me

[00:01:04] Click go the shears boys click click click

[00:01:08] Wide is his blow and his hands move quick

[00:01:12] The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow

[00:01:16] And curses the old snagger with the bare bellied joe

[00:01:18] There we leave him standing shouting for all hands

[00:01:19] Whilst all around him every shouter stands

[00:01:20] His eye is on the keg which now is lowering fast

[00:01:21] He works hard he drinks hard and goes to hell at last
