lyrics

I have a friend named Rose, she lives in the Barrossa
She spends all her time drinking Beaujolais wine
And sometimes forgets where her clothes are.

The aging Soprano was charming. She once sung the lead role in Carmen
I drank to the close With that fading old rose
Singing “Lilly the pink” with the Barmen

And the Frenchman Jean-Paul Kuma satre
Had a lover he met in Sumatra
And they’d dunny door, like Zsa Zsa Gabor
And swing it like Nancy Sinatra

The Captain of the Lara Kinsela, Was a gay and a hearty old fella
Said ‘there’s much to be learned, from the water astern
Cause its done its time with the propeller
