The Road to Gundagai
Oh we started out from Roto, when the sheds had
all cut out
We'd whips and whips of money as we meant to push
about;
So we humped our blueys serenely and made for
Sydney town,
With a three-spot check between us as wanted
knocking down.
cho: And we camped at Lazy Harry's on the road to
Gundagai,
     The road to Gundagai, five miles from
Boonabri;
     And we camped at Lazy Harry's on the road to
Gundagai.
Well, we struck the Murumbidgee near the Yanco in
a week,
And passed through old Narrandera, and crossed
the Burnett Creek;
And we never stopped at Wagga, for we'd Sydney in
our eye,
And we camped at Lazy Harry's on the road to
Gundagai.
cho:
Well, I've seen a lot of girls, my lads, and
drunk a lot of beer,
And I've met with some of both as has left me
pretty queer.
But for beer to knock you sideways and for girls
to make you cry,
You should camp at Lazy Harry's on the road to
Gundagai.
cho:
Well, we chucked our flamin' wags off and we
walked into the bar
And we called for rum and raspberry and a
shilling each cigar;
But the girl that served the poison, she winked
at Bill and I,
So we camped at Lazy Harry's on the road to
Gundagai.
cho:
In a week the spree was over, and our check was
all knocked down,
So we shouldered our Matildas and we turned our
backs on town.
And the girls stood us a nobblers as we sadly
said goodbye,
And we tramped from Lazy Harry's on the road to
Gundagai.
last cho:
     Yes we tramped from Lazy Harry's on the road
to Gundagai,
     The road to Gundagai, five miles from
Boonabri;
     And we tramped from Lazy Harry's on the road
to Gundagai.
