Текст песни Boomerang - Slim Dusty
This
is
the
tale
of
a
new
chum,
Jack
Who'd
just
come
in
from
the
Great
Outback!
I
asked
an
old
dark
man
how
the
boomerang
came
to
be
And
he
told
me
as
only
a
dark
fella
can
That
they
made
it
from
a
boomerang
tree
A
boomerang,
a
boomerang,
a
boomerang
tree
I
searched
and
searched
but
I
never
did
see
That's
how
the
boomerang
came
to
be,
They
made
it
from
a
boomerang
tree
I
asked
an
old
dark
man
where
the
kangaroo
got
its
tail
And
he
told
me
as
only
a
dark
fella
can
They
shipped
them
in
on
the
Birdsville
mail
Shipped
them
in
on
the
Birdsville
mail,
A
couple
of
a
hundred
to
a
bail
Shipped
them
in
on
the
Birdsville
mail
And
that's
how
the
kangaroo
got
its
tail
I
asked
an
old
dark
man
where
the
roly-poly
goes
And
he
told
me
as
only
a
dark
fella
can
That
the
big
fella
Dabble-Dabble
lives
on
those
A
big
fella
Dabble-Dabble
lives
on
those
A
big
fella
Dabble-Dabble
lives
on
those
And
every
picaninny
knows:
That's
where
the
roly-poly
goes.
Boomerang,
boomerang,
kangaroo
tail,
Roly-poly,
Birdsville
Mail
New
chum,
new
chum
on
the
trail:
All
add
up
to
a
dark
fella's
tale.
I
asked
an
old
dark
man
how
you
tell
the
Coolibah
tree
And
he
told
me
as
only
a
dark
fella
can
That
they
always
write
it
with
a
capital
'C.'
Always
write
it
with
a
capital
'C'
Always
write
it
with
a
capital
'C'
And
that's
how
you
tell
the
Coolibah
tree
Well,
that's
what
the
dark
man
said
to
me
I
asked
an
old
dark
man
how
the
billabong
got
its
name
And
he
told
me
as
only
a
dark
fella
can
That
he
wasn't
around
when
the
billabong
came
Wasn't
around
when
the
billabong
came
Wasn't
around
when
the
billabong
came
Doesn't
know
how
it's
got
its
name
'Cause
he
wasn't
around
when
the
billabong
came
Billabong,
boomerang,
kangaroo
tail,
Roly-poly,
Birdsville
Mail
Coolibah,
new
chum
on
the
trail:
All
add
up
to
a
dark
fella's
tale.
All
add
up
to
a
dark
fella's
tale
All
add
up
to
a
dark
fella's
tale.
