    Lyrics
    LAZY HARRY'S

    Oh we started out from Roto when the sheds had all cut out
    We'd whips and whips of rhino as we meant to push about
    So we humped our blues serenely and made for Sydney town
    With a three-spot cheque between us as wanted knocking down.


    Chorus
    But we camped at Lazy Harry's, on the road to Gundagai
    The road to Gundagai, not five miles from Gundagai
    Yes we camped at Lazy Harry's, on the road to Gundagai.

    Well we struck the Murrumbidgee near the Yanco in a week
    And passed through old Narrandera and crossed the Burnett Creek
    And we never stopped at Wagga, for we'd Sydney in our eye
    But we camped at Lazy Harry's, on the road to Gundagai.

    Oh I've seen a lot of girls, my boys and drunk a lot of beer
    And I've met with some of both, chaps, as has left me mighty queer
    But for beer to knock you sideways, and for girls to make you sigh
    You must camp at Lazy Harry's, on the road to Gundagai.

    Well, we chucked our blooming swags off, and we walked into the bar
    And we called for rum-an'-raspb'ry and a shilling each cigar
    But the girl that served the poison, she winked at Bill and I -
    And we camped at Lazy Harry's, on the road to Gundagai.

    In a week the spree was over and the cheque was all knocked down
    So we shouldered our Matildas, and we turned our back to town
    And the girls they stood a nobbler as we sadly said goodbye
    And we tramped from Lazy Harry's on the road to Gundagai.


    Final Chorus
    And we tramped from Lazy Harry's, on the road to Gundagai
    The road to Gundagai, not five miles from Gundagai
    Yes we tramped from Lazy Harry's, on the road to Gundagai.
