I've been around the world
A couple of times or maybe more
I've seen the sights, and had delights
On many foreign shores
But when me cobbers ask me
The place that I adore
I tell them right away
Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, and a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair
Standing in the kitchen
Just up a roast
Or Vegemite on toast
You and me, and a cup of tea
And later in the evening
We'll settle on the porch
And watch the possums play
Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, and a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair
There's a Safeways down the corner
And a Woolies up the street
And a Hypermart just down the road
Where they regulate the heat
But I'd trade it all tomorrow
For me little bush retreat
Where the kookaburras play
Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, and a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair
Some people live in houses
With fences all around
Some they live in mansions
And some go under k-kick the ground
But me I much prefer the bush
With rabbits running round
And a pumpkin vine out the back
Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, and a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair
Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, and a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair
Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, and a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair
And an old rocking chair
