Age has left him grayer and frailer and slow
The three times champion shearer at Warrnambool show
But that is going back some four decades ago
Time eventually does become everyone's foe
The top shearer in every shed that he shore in when in his prime
He has become one more victim of time
Of life he has lived ten years with three score
And he has not shorn any sheep for six years if not more
Though he has made love to many women he has never had a wife
And without any children he knows of in his life
His physical best years in life he has known
And it looks like that he will grow old on his own
But he remains partial to his pot of cheer
He still has got a very strong liking for beer.
