Click, go the shears boys, click,

Wide is the blow, and his hands are moving quick,

Oh you pull out a sheep and he lands you a kick,

And still you hear the shears agoing click,

Twenty thousand acres sounds like a lot,

it ain’t when you’re grazin’ all the sheep we’ve got.

There’s plenty o’food and water,

so they never kick,

They’re happy ’till they hear the shears go click.

 

You take off the belly wool and finickle out the crutch,

Then go up the neck for the rules they are such,

You clean round the hours and the first shoulder down,

A long blow up the back and then you turn around.

 

And when the shearin’s over and we’ve all got our check we’ll roll up our blueys and we’re off on the track,

The first town we come to, well, there we’ll have a spree,

And ev’ry one that comes along ’ll join in with me.

 

剪羊毛，男孩們，剪羊毛，

潔白的羊毛像絲綿，鋒利的剪刀咔嚓響，

哦，你拉出一隻羊，牠給你踢了一腳，

你仍然聽到剪刀喀嚓響，

二萬英畝聽起來很多，

當你抓住我們所有的羊時，其實不是這樣。

有充足的食物和水，

所以牠們從不踢，

牠們很開心，直到牠們聽到剪刀發出聲音。

 

你取下腹部的羊毛，整理胯部，

然後按照規則行事，

你打掃幾個小時，第一個肩膀下來，

長時間在背後剪，然後你轉身。

 

剪羊毛結束了，我們都得到了支票，我們捲起來我們的藍色包裝袋，我們就在路上，

我們來到第一個小鎮，在那裡，我們會狂飲作樂，

而且隨之而來的人會一起加入。
