"Cribs to be cracked!
There are cribs to be cracked;
And this is the spot to be camped on."
(Oh! This is the song of the Melbourne Thieves
Who at present are doing Rockhampton.)
"Cribs to be cracked!
There are cribs to be cracked;
And d--------l a sleuth-hound is near us!
The specials are here, but the thief-hunter Clark
Has gone to look after the shearers."
