Tall and freckled and sandy

Face of a country lout

This was the picture of andy

Middleton's rouseabout

Type of a coming nation

In the land of cattle and sheep

He worked on middleton's station

For a pound a week and his keep

On middleton's wide dominions

Plied the stockwhip and shears

Had he er hadn't any opinions

Had he hadn't any ideas'

Swiftly the years went over

And liquor and drought prevailed

And middleton he went as a drover you know

After his station had failed

Type of a careless nation

Men who are soon played out

Middleton was: and so his station

Bought by the rouseabout

Now flourishing beard and sandy

He's tall he's robust and stout

Yes this is the picture of andy you know

Middleton's rouseabout

And now on his own dominions

He works with his overseers

And he still hasn't any opinions

He hasn't any ideas
