Explore "The Loafers' Club" by Andrew Barton Paterson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
A club there is established here, whose name they say is / Legion / From Melbourne to the Billabong, they're known in every / region. / They do not like the cockatoos, but mostly stick to stations, / Where they keep themselves from starving by cadging / shepherds' rations.
The rules and regulations, they're not difficult of learning, / They are to live upon the cash which others have been / earning. / To never let a chance go by of being in a shout, sir, / And if they see a slant to turn your pockets inside out, sir.
