Young David

He likes the big town atmosphere young David The city life is better by far he say He won't be going back to the hills of Toora He only wish they were further away. He says that Toora is only a small place A village that some people call a town The summer months are hot as hell and humid And the sun scorched hills around are bare and brown. In Toora there's an ageing population No jobs there for the young people to stay On leaving school they pack and leave forever For Melbourne and big cities far away. Young David is a very happy fellow He's in his prime and only twenty three He says he likes young city women better For of any inhibitions they are free. He says one day he'd like to father children But he's young as of yet to settle down And in any case no shortage of young single women So many of them live in the big town. Young David is well used to city living The discos at the weekends he enjoy He works five days a week for a scaffold builder And he's outgrown the tag of country boy.
