    I had written him a letter which I had, for want of better, Knowledge, sent to where I met him down the Lachlan, years ago, He was shearing when I knew him, so I sent the letter to him, Just on spec, addressed as follows, “Clancy, of The Overflow”. And an answer came directed in a writing unexpected, (And I think the same was written with a thumb-nail dipped in tar) ’Twas his shearing mate who wrote it, and verbatim I will quote it: “Clancy’s gone to Queensland droving, and we don’t know where he are.” In my wild erratic fancy visions come to me of Clancy Gone a-droving “down the Cooper” where the Western drovers go; As the stock are slowly stringing, Clancy rides behind them singing, For the drover’s life has pleasures that the townsfolk never know. And the bush hath friends to meet him, and their kindly voices greet him In the murmur of the breezes and the river on its bars, And he sees the vision splendid of the sunlit plains extended, And at night the wond’rous glory of the everlasting stars. I am sitting in my dingy little office, where a stingy Ray of sunlight struggles feebly down between the houses tall, And the foetid air and gritty of the dusty, dirty city Through the open window floating, spreads its foulness over all. And in place of lowing cattle, I can hear the fiendish rattle Of the tramways and the buses making hurry down the street, And the language uninviting of the gutter children fighting, Comes fitfully and faintly through the ceaseless tramp of feet. And the hurrying people daunt me, and their pallid faces haunt me As they shoulder one another in their rush and nervous haste, With their eager eyes and greedy, and their stunted forms and weedy, For townsfolk have no time to grow, they have no time to waste. And I somehow rather fancy that I’d like to change with Clancy, Like to take a turn at droving where the seasons come and go, While he faced the round eternal of the cash-book and the journal - But I doubt he’d suit the office, Clancy, of The Overflow

    Ultimate evidence that if the Whistle is in the same key as the song, you can peg any note in the scale and it fits :-) But, yes, and true Australian classic. Who remembers what was on the 'B' side of the 45..... Look up 'Going Solar"

    This song is one of the best songs to describe the beaty of what Australia is all about, the hard work and dedication of the people that came to this beautiful country and made it what it is today, we the immigrants that fought of the Japanese imperialists to withhold them from taking this country (oh you dont hear that every day) and the thanks we get?..none!!, so people of Australia read up on historical events not just whst idiots want you to believe
