-
- 52 years he sat on his veranda
- and if you had questions bout sheep
- they're building a library for him
- think I see kangaroo up ahead
The son of George Woolnough
- went off and got married
- and had a war baby
- somethin' was wrong
- and it's easier to drink than go crazy
- and if there were questions about why
- the end was so sad
- well George had no answers
- 'bout why a son ever have need of a gun
-
- Time is a traveler
- Tenterfield Saddler
- turn your head ride again jackaroo
- think I see Kangaroo up ahead
-
- The grandson of George
- has been all around the world
- and lives in no special place
- changed his last name and he married a girl
- with an interestin' face
- he'd almost forgotten them both
- because in the life that he leads
- there's no where for George and his library
- or the son with his gun to belong
- except in this song
-
- Time is a traveler
- Tenterfield Saddler
- turn your head
- ride again jackaroo
- think I see kangaroo up ahead
-
- Time is a meddler
- Tenterfield Saddler
- make your bed fly away cockatoo
- emu up ahead
- time is a tale teller
- Tenterfield Saddler
- turn your head
- ride again jackaroo
- think I see kangaroo up ahead
