Verse
G C G
One night while droving sheep, my companions lay asleep,
G D
There was not a star to illuminate the sky;
G C G
I was dreaming I suppose for my eyes were nearly closed
C G
When a very strange procession passed me by.
C G
First there came a kangaroo, with his swag of blankets blue,
D
A dingo ran beside him for a mate;
G C G
They were travelling mighty fast, but they shouted as they passed
N.C. G
“We'll have to jog along, it's getting late.”
C D
[Verse 2]
G C G
The pelican and the crane, they came in from off the plain,
D
To amuse the company with a Highland fling;
G C G
And the dear old bandicoot played the tune upon his flute,
D G C G
And the native bears sat round all in a ring.
C G
Then the possum and the crow sang a song of long ago,
D
And the frill-necked lizard listened with a smile;
D C G
And the emu standing near, with his claw behind his ear
N.C.
Said the funniest thing I've heard for quite a while.
[Verse 3]
G C G
Some frogs from out the swamp where the atmosphere is damp,
D
Came bouncing in and sat upon some stones;
G C G
They each unrolled their swags and produced from little bags
D G
The violin, the banjo and the bones.
C G D
G C G
D G
[Verse 4]
C G
The goanna and the snake and the adder wide awake
D
With the alligator danced the Soldier's Joy;
G C G
In the spreading silky oak then the jackass cracked a joke,
D G
And the magpie sang The Wild Colonial Boy.
C D G
G C G
Some brolgas darted out from the tea-trees all about,
D
And performed a set of Lancers very well;
G C G
The parrot green and blue gave the orchestra its cue
D G
To strike up The Old Log Cabin in the Dell.
C G
G G
I was dreaming, I suppose, of these entertaining shows,
D
But it never crossed my mind I was asleep
G C G
Till the boss beneath the cart woke me up with such a start
N.C.
Yelling: “Dreamy, where the hell are all the sheep?”
G D D
