He hails from Snowy River, up by Kosciusko's side, Where the hills are twice as steep, and twice as rough;
Where the horse's hoofs strike firelight from the flintstones every stride, The man that holds his own is good enough.
And the Snowy River riders on the mountains make their home, Where the river runs those giant hills between;
I have seen full many horsemen since I first commenced to roam, But nowhere yet such horsemen have I seen.
