Venus Bay

Not much commerce in Venus Bay the Village by the sea But a good place for the working man and his wife and family To spend their Christmas holidays and take in the ocean breeze And laze away the afternoons in the shadow of the trees. The road from Inverloch via Tarwin Lower that leads to Venus Bay You might say is uneven and narrow all the way And many people see it as off of the beaten track Though many who paid a visit there have been known to come back. I too have been to Venus Bay the beach there even quiet And the few shops there for business closed long before the fall of night An ideal place for the suburban family for a week or longer stay For to fish or swim or lay on the beach in the sun shine of day. A place of peace and beauty and off of the beaten track And I'm one of those people who has been to and gone back To that place of little commerce good for the quiet holiday In South Gippsland by the ocean beautiful old Venus Bay.
