This song was sung by all Aussie children through the 60's and 70s.
One of the funest songs ever.
The original recording on Australian Bandstand 1960 with this deleted verse

Let me Abos go loose, Lou
Let me Abos go loose
They're of no further use, Lou
So let me Abos go loose.
The verse caused controversy in 1964 because of its use of the word "Abo", an offensive slang term for Aboriginal Australians.

My sister had this 45 rpm record. I used to love to play it.
