It is well-known among Australians, and one of a small number of pieces which are considered to be Australian folk tunes. Gundagai is a rural town of New South Wales. Lyrics: There's a track winding back To an old-fashioned shack Along the road to Gundagai! Where the blue gums are growing And the Murrumbidgee's flowing Beneath the sunny sky, Where my daddy and mother are waiting for me And the pals of my childhood once more I will see. Then no more will I roam when I'm heading right for home Along the road to Gundagai! This version has some additional lyrics: Hello old timer, how's things? They're pretty crook! Things must be pretty crook 'round these parts mate! What with no rain for your stock and them all dyin' You must be havin' a pretty crook trot But you ain't got it all on your own, blimey no! The other day I asked a bloke if he had any old clothes he didn't want Strewth, he took a look at me and said Yes, things is pretty crook alright! I knocked on a blokes door the other day And when the missus comes out I gets down on me hands and knees and started eating the grass I said "Missus, I'm that hungry, I'll eat grass!" She said "You poor man, go 'round the back, it's much longer!" Yes, things is crook alright! Well, I suppose I better be joggin' along Hooray mate, Hooray! I'll see you again Coo-ee!
