Explore "Somewhere up in Queensland" by Henry Lawson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

HE'S somewhere up in Queensland, / The old folks used to say; / He's somewhere up in Queensland, / The people say to-day. / But Somewhere (up in Queensland) / That uncle used to know -- / That filled our hearts with wonder, / Seems vanished long ago.

He's gone to Queensland, droving, / The old folks used to say; / He's gone to Queensland, droving, / The people say to-day. / But "gone to Queensland, droving," / Might mean, in language plain, / He follows stock in buggies, / And gets supplies by train.
