**************************************************************

I've been around the world a dozen times or maybe more
I've seen the sights and had delights on every foreign shore
But when my frinds all ask of me the place that I adore
I tell them right away

Give me a home amongst the gum trees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two a kangaroo
A clothes line out the back
veranda out the front
And an old rocking chair

We'll be standing in the kitchen
Cooking up a roast
Vegemimite on toast
Just me and you and a cockatoo
And after tea we'll settle down
Beside the hitching post
And watch the wombats play

There's a safeway on the corner and a woolworths down the street
And a new ones just been opened where they regulate the heat
But I'd trade them all tomorrow for a simple bush retreat
Where Kookaburra's sing

Some people like there houses builot with fences all around
Others live in mansions or in bunkers under ground
But I wontbe content untill the day that I have found
The place I long to be
