From the recording Dublya Dublya (WW)
Lyrics
I grew up in West Wyalong.
Thought I’d tell you about it in a song.
I've never done this sort of thing before.
Lend me your ears and I'll try not to bore.
It’s Wheat, Sheep
and a crooked main street! (x2)
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
Yeh- that’s not bad.
I like it………………………..
Wheat, Sheep
and a crooked main street!
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
Catchy?
Right- on!
Let’s get on with it then shall we.
=============
Why West Wyalong and not Wyalong?
Well, they struck gold in West Wyalong.
The family Neeld they struck it rich.
We still pull gold from a big red ditch.
It’s Wheat, Sheep
and a crooked main street! (x2)
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
Struth.
Bloody fantastic if you ask me…………………
Wheat, Sheep
and a crooked main street!
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
Pardon me!
Sorry I digress.
Okay, no need for stress.
============
Great Counter lunches and teas in town.
Toppy pub’s cutlets I give the crown.
All the truckies they know it well.
It’s a round the bypass and up to shell.
It’s Wheat, Sheep
and a crooked main street! (x2)
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
Yee ha!
Ride-em cowboy!
Yaah!
Giddy-up!
Do-si-do your partner!
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
Insert whistling here………..
(Whistling)
============
Many people have travelled through
the place with the double double-U.
“Yes I know it, I been there.”
Even city folk have a tale to share.
It’s Wheat, Sheep
and a crooked main street! (x2)
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
(Whistling)
Wheat, Sheep
and a crooked main street!
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
(Singing/Whistling)
Whoops!
I got carried away there.
============
Sometimes here it gets bloody hot
its West Wyalong not Camelot!
Locals........ we all love it here.
Choice of pubs with ice cold beer.
It’s Wheat, Sheep
and a crooked main street! (x2)
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
(Whistling) x2
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
Love it!
I absolutely do.
What do you think?
Don’t answer that.
============
Local people are good and kind.
Cockies and Townies they all combine.
They help each other in times of need.
Great place to live
that’s agreed.
It’s Wheat, Sheep
and a crooked main street! (x2)
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
(Whistling) x2
West Wyalong where the highways meet.
