Pat Boone - Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport lyrics

{Spoken-word intro} Somewhere, out on the plains, north-east of Adelaide There's an old Australian stockman lying, dying... And he gets himself up onto one elbow And he turns to his mates, all gathered around him And he says: {Verse 1} Watch me wallabies feed, mate Watch me wallabies feed They're a dangerous breed, mate So watch me wallabies feed Altogether now! {Chorus} Tie me kangaroo down, sport Tie me kangaroo down Tie me kangaroo down, sport Tie me kangaroo down! {Verse 2} Keep me co*katoo cool, Curl Keep me co*katoo cool {co*katoo bird-call sound effect plays} Don't go acting thе fool, Curl Just keep me co*katoo cool Watch the birdie! {Chorus} Tiе me kangaroo down, sport Tie me kangaroo down (Tie me kangaroo down) Tie me kangaroo down, sport Tie me kangaroo down! {Verse 3} Let me abos go loose, Lou Let me abos go loose (oh!) They're of no further use, Lou So let me abos go loose Just the abos sing! {Chorus} Tie me kangaroos down, sport Tie me kangaroo down (What a rhythm, Bill!) Tie me kangaroo down, sport Tie me kangaroo down! {Verse 4} Mind me platypus duck, Bill Mind me platypus duck Don't let him go runnin' amok, Bill Just mind me platypus duck Altogether, sing! {Chorus} Tie me kangaroos down, sport Tie me kangaroo down (Tie me kangaroo down) Tie me kangaroo down, sport Tie me kangaroo down! {Verse 5} Play a didgeridoo, Blue Play a didgeridoo Keep playin' until I shoot through, Blue Oh, play your didgeridoo Feelin' weaker now... {Chorus} Tie me kangaroos down, sport Tie me kangaroo down (Tie me kangaroo down) Tie me kangaroo down, sport Tie me kangaroo down! Oh, and... P.S.: {Verse 6} Tan me hide when I'm dead, Fred Tan me hide when I'm dead So, we tanned his hide when he died, Clyde And left it hangin' on the shed! In memorium! {Chorus} Tie me kangaroo down, sport Tie me kangaroo down I'm a comin', Mom! Tie me kangaroo down, sport Tie me kangaroo doooown!
