I've never sailed the Amazon, <br />I've never reached Brazil; <br />But the Don and Magdalena, <br />They can go there when they will! <br /> <br />Yes, weekly from Southampton <br />Great steamers, white and gold, <br />Go rolling down to Rio <br />(Roll down--roll down to Rio!). <br />And I'd like to roll to Rio <br />Some day before I'm old! <br /> <br />I've never seen a Jaguar, <br />Nor yet an Armadill-- <br />He's dilloing in his armour, <br />And I s'pose I never will, <br /> <br />Unless I go to Rio <br />These wonders to behold-- <br />Roll down--roll down to Rio-- <br />Roll really down to Rio! <br />Oh, I'd love to roll to Rio <br />Some day before I'm old!<br /><br />Rudyard Kipling<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-beginning-of-the-armadilloes/
