The Brothers Four
Lazy Harry’s
[Intro]
Stanley
Yes?
Shall we tell about that time in Australia?
Oh, do you really think we ought to?
Well, it's a bit of alright with me
Then have a go at it
Righto
[Verse 1]
Oh, we started out from Roto, when the sheep had all been cut
With a whopping cheque between us that we meant to spend about
Yes, and we passed right by the local boozers
We had Sydney in our eye
Till we came to Lazy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
[Chorus]
Oh, we came to Lazy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
The road to Gundagai, just a mile from Gundagai
Oh, we came to Lazy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
[Verse 2]
Well, we strolled into the parlor, threw our swags upon the floor
And we ordered rum and raspberry and a shilling each cigar
But the girl that served the poison, well, she winked at Stan and I
Did you see that, Stanley?
I certainly did
So we camped at Lazy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
[Chorus]
Oh, we camped at Lazy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
The road to Gundagai, just a mile from Gundagai
Oh, we camped at Lazy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
[Verse 3]
Now, I've seen lots of girls, me boys, and drunk a lot of beer
And I've met with some of both, me boys, that's left me mighty queer
But for grog to knock you sideways and for girls to make you sigh
You should camp at Lazy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
[Chorus]
You should camp at Lazy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
The road to Gundagai, the road to Gundagai
You should camp at Lazy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
[Verse 4]
In a week the spree was over and our money was all gone
So we shouldered our matilda's and we turned our backs on town
Come along, Stanley
Yes
And the girls that winked at Stan and I gave someone else the eye
So we tramped from Lousy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
[Chorus]
Oh, we tramped from Lousy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
The road to Gundagai, just a mile from Gundagai
Yes, we tramped from Lousy Harry's on the road to Gundagai
