剪羊毛英文原版——Click Go the Shears  
Out on the board the old shearer stands  
Grasping his shears in his long bony hands  
Fixed is his gaze on a bare-bellied "joe"  
Glory if he gets her, won't he make the ringer go
CHORUS副歌:
Click go the shears boys, click, click, click
Wide is his blow and his hands move quick  
The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow
And curses the old snagger with the blue-bellied "joe"
---------------------------------------------------------
In the middle of the floor in his cane-bottomed chair  
Is the boss of the board, with eyes everywhere  
Notes well each fleece as it comes to the screen  
Paying strict attention if it's taken off clean
The colonial-experience man he is there, of course  
With his shiny leggin's just got off his horse  
Casting round his eye like a real connoisseur  
Whistling the old tune "I'm the Perfect Lure"
The tar-boy is there awaiting in demand  
With his blackened tar-pot and his tarry hand  
Sees one old sheep with a cut upon its back  
Here's what he's waiting for "Tar here Jack!"
Shearing is all over and we've all got our cheques  
Roll up your swag for we're off on the tracks  
The first pub we come to it's there we'll have a spree  
And everyone that comes along it's, "Come and drink with me!"
Down by the bar the old shearer stands  
Grasping his glass in his thin bony hands  
Fixed is his gaze on a green-painted keg  
Glory he'll get down on it ere he stirs a peg
There we leave him standing, shouting for all hands  
Whilst all around him every shouter stands  
His eyes are on the cask which is now lowering fast  
He works hard he drinks hard and goes to hell at last
You take off the belly-wool clean out the crutch  
Go up the neck for the rules they are such  
You clean round the horns first shoulder go down  
One blow up the back and you then turn around
Click, click, that's how the shears go  
Click, click, so awfully quick  
You pull out a sheep he'll give a kick
And still hear your shears going click, click, click
