The Sunlander - Slim Dusty

Oh lay ee doo oo dee eee, oh lay ee doo oo dee eee

Oo oo ee dee, oo oo ee ee, oo oo a doo dee deee

Well my girl and me, were happy you see, until a week ago

Then one crazy night.

we had a fight, and she said I had to go.

I travelled around, and finally found, I was in the sunshine state

In old Brisbane town, I was standing around, I went down to Roma St

I wandered along,

through the hurrying throng.

to rest on a railway seat

When in rolled a train, I took in her name, to me it sounded grand

When she pulled out that day,

I was shouting 'hooray'.on the Sunlander from Queensland

With the future to guide,

the Boomerang (?) ride, right to the journey’s end

It rolls in on time,

boy I’m feelin/ just fine.

The wheels roll out their song.

I’ve got nothin/ to lose,

I’m forgetting my blues.

as the Sunlander’s rollin' on
