The sheep got lost on the squatters' run.The shearing season was nearly done.Said the squatters eaten up with greed,"We'll pay good wages and give good feed." The blackfellers sheared the wool and thenGot their wages like working-men.The squatters' words were stiff and sore,"We won't pay wages like that no more."...Excerpt from the poem "Clancey and Doolery and Don Mcleod" by Dorothy Hewett
