He's a decent man this Murray Quick he'll not do you any harm In fact if he think much of you he'd give you his 'right arm' But if you go in his bad books then better you start running As 'twould be unwise to stick around if for you he is gunning. I've never heard that man complain he's not a whinging wimper But do not tread upon his toes he's got a nasty temper And I've heard it said that Murray Quick was quite a wild young fellow But years can blow the winds of change and time can turn one mellow. His people came from outback land from banks of Murray river Where mozzie gives a nasty bite and stars in night sky shiver And that's how his name came about his name tells it's own story His Granddad was fox shooting man and sought no gold or glory. And life's been good to Murray Quick to Murray from Bayswater He's got himself a lovely wife two young sons and a daughter He works hard for his livelihood and he doesn't owe to any And he's admired for what he is and his friends are in the many
