The Philipinno

The young man from the fishing village in The Philippines as a young boy Out fishing with his dad in his dad's boat at the weekends he used to enjoy Till the lust of the wander grew in him for Lands far away And far south of the Philippines he is living today In South Western Victoria in Camperdown He works as a builder in the old country Town But the wander bug is in him in Camperdown he will not stay He will be moving on in a not distant day Though the praises of the hometown many may sing The lure of the wander is an irresistible thing The accent of The Philippines with him does remain And he will be happy to be on the highway again North on the way to another big town From South Western Victoria and Camperdown.
