The Man From Snowy River Updated

Banjo used to fancy that he would like to swap with Clancy,
But that was in the days of long ago,
Now the times are changing and the diesel trucks are ranging
The silent bush that Clancy used to know,
When there's movement at the station, nowadays, they put the pace on,
The machines that are by outback drivers prized,
All open up the throttle as they rattle through the wattle,
For the man from snowy rivers' mechanized!
