Oh,
Who
Hasn't
Heard of
Uwabalong
Ball?
Where the lads of the
Loughlin, the great and the small,
Come bent on diversion
from far and from near,
To shake up their troubles
for just once a year.
Oh,
Uwabalong
Ball is a wonderful sight,
With the lads and the lasses a
-dancin' all night.
There's many they'll be,
re gret to recall,
The folk as they danced at
Uwabalongbore.
Like stringy old weathers,
the shearers in force,
All rushed to the bar as a
matter of course,
While
Walson, his cliner, the manager cursed,
For someone had caught
him a jab with his spurs.
Oh,
Uwabalongbore is a wonderful sight
With the lads and the lasses
a -dancin' all night
There's many they'll
be regret to recall
The folk as they danced at
Uwabalongbore
There were climbers in plenty,
some two or three score
Some wheelers and two -tooths
and maybe some more
With their fleeces all dipped,
so fluffy and clean
The finest young sheilas
that ever was seen
Oh, you are the
Longbow, it's a wonderful sight
With the lads and the lassies
a -dancin' all night
As many as there'll be, regret to recall
The polkas they danced at,
you are the
Longbow
The
Boundary
Riders was a friskin' about
But the well -seekers seemed
to be feelin' the drought
If the water was scarce, well,
the whiskey was there
But they couldn't swallow,
they rubbed in their hair
Oh, you
Abelongbor is a wonderful sight
With the lads and the lassies a
-dancin' all night
There's many they'll be,
regret to recall
The polkas they danced at
Uwabalongball
There was music and dancing
and going the place
Some went at a cantor,
some went at a race
There was bucking and gliding
and staggering and sliding
To bury the gate, some couples colliding
You have a long ball,
it's a wonderful sight
With the lads and the lasses a
-dancin' all night
There's many they'll
be regret to recall
The polkas they danced at
you have a long ball
