"Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport" is a song written by Australian singer Rolf Harris in 1957 which became a hit around the world in the 1960s in two recordings (1960 in Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom for the original, and 1963 in the United States with a re-recording of the song). Inspired by Harry Belafonte's calypsos, most noticeably "The Jack-Ass Song", it is about an Australian stockman on his deathbed.

  • Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport (ungefähr: „Bind mein Känguru an, Sportsfreund“) ist ein humoristisches Lied von Rolf Harris aus dem Jahr 1957. Das Lied ist inspiriert von Harry Belafontes Calypso und handelt von einem australischen Rancher (Stockman), der auf dem Sterbebett seinen Freund bittet, sich um die täglichen Arbeiten auf der Farm zu kümmern. Der Freund wird u. a. gebeten, die Wallabys zu füttern und das Känguru anzubinden, weil es sonst immer herumhüpft. Das Lied spielt auf die typisch australischen Dinge und Tiere an, wie Kakadus, Schnabeltiere und Koalas sowie Didgeridoos. Das Lied ist eines der bekanntesten und erfolgreichsten australischen Lieder. (de)
