Verse 1
C 
G 
C 
Get aboard a
train and ride far away
F 
I'm leaving this old town today
C 
G 
I'm going back to Duck and Wooloo Creek
C 
The sorts down here got all my dough
F 
Either they're too fast or I'm too slow
C 
G 
C 
But I found that I was broke within a week
I left my pals and I left my hoss
F 
And I went out there to King's Cross
C 
I thought I'd show the shillers
G 
what was what
C 
I'd chased a sort with a real tight skirt
F 
By the cut of her jib
I thought she'd flirt
C 
G 
C 
But a clout and a snout from her was all I got
I did the town with a sort one day
F 
Boy oh boy did we make hay
C 
G 
At one time we were strolling in the zoo
C 
As we walked past the monkey's cage
F 
I flew into an awful rage
G 
when an ape said who's the monkey,
C 
me or you?
We went out to a nightclub too,
F 
should have seen the grog that
we went through
C 
G 
Then the waiter came and handed me the bill
C 
I washed dishes until three,
F 
but the sort that came with me
C 
I'll bet that she's there
G 
C 
washing dishes still
I've been in town for a month or two,
F 
there wasn't much that I didn't do
C 
From chasin' swords to
G 
drivin' a truck at night
Oh, phew!
C 
I've been to church and I've been in jail
F 
I've had the cop shop up for sale
G 
If the cops were there,
C 
I would have sold them too
I thought I'd like a little ark
F 
So I climbed in a thing like Noah's Ark
C 
G 
And sat there as happy as a Turk
C 
But oh, my friend, what a fool I am
F 
That an cient thing was a Sydney tram
C 
G 
As I found out when I took off with a jerk
C 
So I'll saddle my pony and ride far away
F 
I'm leaving  this old town today
C 
I'm heading for my
G 
duck and moolah home
C 
The sorts down here
get on my nerves
F 
They think they're hot with their
supercars
C 
But take away their packin'
G 
C 
F 
C 
and they're just skin and bone you
