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.
