Three Boys On Their Bicycles

Along the quiet back streets pedalling up and down Three boys on their bicycles in the old country town The prime years of their lives a decade ahead The future belong to the youth as has often been said The magpie on a street tree is fluting his song As three boys on their bicycles pedal along Chatting of football stars and the fortunes of their favourite football team To be great football players they do often daydream With their football boots slung across the handlebars to the football oval bound 'Tis every young players dream for to be best on ground At the famed M C G on Grand Final Day Though that for them over a decade away Full of young ambition and dreams of renown They pedal along the back streets of the town.
