the pommy jackaroo - buster noble lyrics
i came out to australia to see the great outback
i joined a droving party on the overlander track
i am the honorable thomas john montmorency fitzhugh
but the stockmen call me tommy, the pommy jackaroo
one evening ’round the campfire, we ate a tasty meal
i said, “mm, yes, delicious,” then my head began to reel
i staggered off and left them there, in quite a hasty manner
you see, the cook had just informed me that i’d eaten stewed goanna
i am the honorable thomas john montmorency fitzhugh
but the stockmen call me tommy, the pommy jackaroo
one day, it grew most awfully hot; the river was quite near
i asked them, “are there any sharks?” they said, “no flamin’ fear”
so in i dived, regardless, then i heard some d*mn fool shout
“there used to be some sharks in there, but the crocodiles cleaned them out”
at last we reached the railhead, the cattle were all safe
i said to jack the stockman, “you know, i’m just beginning to chafe”
he said, “when it comes to horses, tom, you just ain’t in the hunt
“you’ve been ridin’ all day, you stupid clown, with your saddle on back to front”
i am the honorable thomas john montmorency fitzhugh
but the stockmen call me tommy, the pommy jackaroo
i traveled down to sydney to catch the ship back home
the boys came down to see me off across the briny foam
with hansen beer, we were, i fear, a great deal more than merry
i climbed aboard, then cried, “good lord!” i was on the manly ferry
i am the honorable thomas john montmorency fitzhugh
but the stockmen call me tommy, the pommy jackaroo
and now i’m back in london, among the mayfair set
i should be quite contented; i s’pose i am, and yet
i get the strongest yearning to pack up and shoot through
back where they call me tommy, the pommy jackaroo
