'The Night Express[下線付]' is a nonsense song aimed at starting off another round of drinks.」「I'll tell you the tale of the night express,/ And how I saved the train/ I'll tell you a wonderful pack of lies,/ If you'll fill my glass again.// Oh we were running the train from/ Blackbutt to Ballarat,/ Now if we had one passenger on that ship/ Oh...we had more than that.// Well all of a sudden the lightning roared,/ And out the thunder flashed,/ The Jib-boom jibbed and the spanker spanked,/ As into the night we dashed.// I thought of those single mens' wives ashore,/ I knew that the storm must be braved,/ But I swore as I lay on the neck of my horse,/ Not one of those men would be saved.// What did I care for all those men?/ What did they care for me?/ So I kissed the man at the wheel,/ And tossed his wife into the sea.// Then up jumped a great big Zulu,/ With a turban on his head,/ And raising up his tomahoawk,/ In Japanese he said.// ""Hoots-a-wah ye spalpeens""/ But I raised a British cheer,/ And kicked him in the appetite,/ And shouted ""Mine's a beer"".」]。[キーワード]：Australiaオーストラリア、folk song民謡、独唱（男声）
