Just hanging out with mum
I am a little joey - me farver was a roo - me muvver was anuver and me bruvver was one too
We'd hop around the gullies and eat up all yer grain - We'd trample down yer fences for you to build again
Well one night it happened - the shooters got me Pa - they got me little bruvver who was hanging on to Ma
I am all that's left now - I'm a really blue grey roo - cos they shipped me off to Sydney town and put me in a zoo
So if you come to visit please ask for me by name
I'm the son of Big Boing Boomer - pride of the Nulla Nulla Plain

The eastern grey kangaroo is a marsupial found in southern and eastern Australia, with a population of several million. Although a big eastern grey male typically masses around 66 kg and stands almost 2 m tall, the scientific name, "Macropus giganteus", is misleading, as the red kangaroo of the semi-arid inland is, at 85 kg, larger.
