The Man From Snowy River
There was movement at the station, for the word had passed around that the colt from Old Regret had got away

And I warrant he'll be with us when he's wanted at the end, for both his horse and he are mountain bred
Oh he hails from Snowy River, up by Kosciusko's side, where the hills
