Gough Lyrics

Little song about a man called gough
And a little boy who wanted to be
tarred with the same brush
He learned latin held his head up high
Hated the liberals didn't know why

There were reasons
How long have you got
There were always reasons yeah
How long have you got

Little boy is on the stage tonight
His name is anthohy hayes and he's doing alright
They went to tha same canberra school
Stevie was nine in 1972 oh oh

What a party
A big day for both of us
A big reason to party yeah
A big day for both of us

Come home and have dinner with me
We'll play chess and drink claret
Play chess and drink claret
Walk slowly down my little street jen
And you can bring margaret
You can bring margaret
Chess and drink claret

Margaret

A bushranger was slaughtered
And gough was betrayed
