BERNARD HILLMAN Eden St Kempsey Jan 1985 SITE SOURCE: Folklore Unit - People SOLDIERS IN KHAKISoldiers in khaki, sailors in blueFighting on land and sea Fighting for England's dear old flag Our home and liberty Plenty of pluck but jolly bad luck Landing at the Dardanelle But playing the game They made such a name Which all the world has learned how to spell A-U-S-T-R-A-L-I-A They're the boys who always lead the way All the nations say Hip hip hooray The kangaroo's a soldier and a sailor When they hear the bugle give the call Day and night we're going to fight 'Till the enemy's out of sight and we're going to blazon ON the name A-U-S-T-R-A-L-I-A |
