I've shore at Burrabogie and I've shore at Toganmain
I've shore at big Willander and out the Coleraine
But before the shearing was over I wished myself back again
A-shearin' for old Tom Patterson on the one tree plain, oh

All among the wool, boys, all among the wool
Keep your blades full, boys, keep your blades full
I can do a respectable tally myself whenever I likes to try
They know me 'round the country as Flash Jack from Gundagai

I've shore at big Willander and I've shore at Tilberoo
And once I drew me blades, boys, upon the famed Barcoo
At Cowan Downs and Trida and as far as Moulamein
Always glad to get back again to the one tree plain, oh

All among the wool, boys, all among the wool
Keep your blades full, boys, keep your blades full
I can do a respectable tally myself whenever I likes to try
They know me 'round the country as Flash Jack from Gundagai

I've pinked 'em with the Wolseley's and rushed with B-bows too
And shaved 'em in the grease, my lads, with grass seed showin' through
But I've never slummed my pen, my lads, whate’er it might contain
While shearin' for old Tom Patterson on the one tree plain, oh

All among the wool, boys, all among the wool
Keep your blades full, boys, keep your blades full
I can do a respectable tally myself whenever I likes to try
They know me 'round the country as Flash Jack from Gundagai
