Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDED FGHGIDJDED| I M GLAD that the Bushmen can t see me now | A |
| A doing it tall in the town | B |
| I ve an inch brimmed hat on my sun burnt brow | A |
| And my collar jumps up and down | B |
| I m wearing a vest that would charm a snake | C |
| And a tie like a lost soul s wail | D |
| And I m dressed in a coat of the latest make | C |
| With a little slit in the tail | D |
| With a little slit in the tail of it | E |
| With a little slit in the tail | D |
| - | |
| My pants alone are a thing of joy | F |
| And they re built to show my bends | G |
| With a crease behind and a crease before | H |
| And a little curl in the ends | G |
| I carry my nose rag in my cuff | I |
| And the lot should get me gaol | D |
| I paid five guineas for my rig out | J |
| And one for the slit in the tail | D |
| For the little slit in the tail of it | E |
| For the little slit in the tail | D |
