Home Among The Gumtrees lyrics by Thelma Plum

Verse 1
I’ve been around the world
A couple of times or maybe more
I’ve seen the sights, I’ve had delights
On every foreign shore
But when my mates all ask me
The place that I adore
I tell them right away

Chorus
Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, and a kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair

Verse 2
You can see me in the kitchen
Cooking up a roast
Or Vegemite on toast
Just you and me, a cup of tea
And later on, we’ll settlе down
And go out on the porch
And watch the possums play

Chorus
Give mе a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, and a kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair
An old rocking chair
