I was making my way through the trial of life until I

stopped at a watering hole.

When what should I find but a salt-water crocodile

— jumped up and put me in a death roll.

Death Roll. Death Roll.

This is the end of this violent song

After what you just have been told .

Cuz there ain’t nothin left when a salt-water crocodile

jumps up and puts you in a death roll.

Death Roll! Death Roll!

First comes an awful shaken.

And you can feel your bones a breakin.

Then it’s down in the water, off to the nest

for a leisurely feed where he can finish the rest!

–Break–

Well I was born to die but I never thought that it

would happen quite this way.

We all got it commin and

that’s a fact cuz it’s just the way we is made.

So watch your ass when you take a dip

at the billibong swimmin hole.

You just gotta hope its not a salt-water crocodile

jumps up and puts you in a death roll.
