The Sunlander
Oh lay ee doo do dee eee
Oh lay ee doo do dee eee
Oo oo ee dee, oo oo ee dee
Oo oo a doo dee deee
Oh 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
So I hit the rails
In New South Wales
Without a friend or mate
I traveled around
And finally found
I was in the sunshine state
In old Brisbane town
I was standing around
I went down to Roma Street
I wandered along
Through the hurrying throng
To rest on a railway seat
Then in rolled a train
I took no her name
To me it sounded grand
When she pulled out that day
I was shouting “hooray”
On the Sunlander from Queensland
Oh lay ee doo do dee eee
Oh lay ee doo do dee eee
Oo oo ee dee, oo oo ee dee
Oo oo a doo dee deee
Oh, baby we’re through
So it’s good by to you
Never goin’ south again
With the future to guide
This boomеr I’ll ride
Right to the journeys еnd
She’s rolling on time
Boy, I’m feelin’ just fine
The wheels roll out their song
I’ve got nothing to lose
I’m forgetting my blues
As the Sunlanders flyin’ on
Oh lay ee doo do dee eee
Oh lay ee doo do dee eee
Oo oo ee dee, oo oo ee dee
Oo oo a doo dee deee
