We'Ll Stop In Gilgandra

One hundred K's or maybe more to the next country town But we will reach Gilgandra before the sun goes down And we will book a room tonight in the Gilgandra hotel 'Twas tweny bucks six months ago my memory serves me well. We have travelled more than 500K's and weary from the car But such a journey in this Land to many doesn't seem far Five hundred K's is nothing mate the travelled Aussie say Some people drive to Queensland from Victoria in a day. But we'll stop in Gilgandra the record we won't chase And we'll reach the Gold Coast in two days we are not in a race And we'll eat a hearty counter meal relax and have a beer And tomorrow night in north New South our journey's end we'll near. For over six hours we have driven and we only had one break And why should we drive on through the night and try to stay awake And though we have many miles to go no deadlines for to keep And we will stop in Gilgandra for to eat and rest and sleep. We'll reach Gilgandra by sunset and then call it a day For South Queensland seems a long way off and many miles away And we will have a good night's sleep in Gilgandra Hotel 'Twas twenty bucks six months ago my memory serves me well.
