Bill Feels He's Australian

Bill feels he is a fair dinkum Australian He says I'm Aussie born and bred and grown It's not my fault that my dad came from Ireland From County Kerry by the Paps of Shrone. My mother and her parents are Australian As were their parents many years before And all of my maternal side have lived here in Australia For at least one hundred years or maybe more. I have travelled far in this great land Australia I have been to Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth I have been to Canberra, Sydney, Brisbane and Darwin And seen Uluru the grandest sight on Earth. From the vast Kimberleys south west to the Flinders ranges Of Western Australia land of changing scenery Wild Kakadu and the Daintree rainforest In this great Land there is so much to see. My father often talks about Sliabh Luachra Of the great bards and musicians that lived there But I'm an Aussie and I love Australia And my favourite song 'Advance Australia Fair'. I've never been to Lands beyond Australia Like the savage 'I love my native shore' My dad came from the Cork and Kerry border And he still talks of his Hometown of Rathmore. There's much to see and do in this big Country And of others Lands I know little at all I barrack for Collingwood the famous Magpies And my favourite game Australian Rules Football. Bill feels he is a fair dinkum Australian He says I'm Aussie born and bred and grown And it's not his fault if his dad came from Kerry From that old land around the Paps of Shrone.
