I've had me share of rubber trees
and screamin' sergeant majors
And livin' like a mongrel dog
in those stuffed out canvas cages
Had me share of screamin' jets
and whoopin' bloody rockets,
beetles in me under dacks
bull ants in me pockets,
Had me share of mud'n slush
and rainin' like a bastard
And when it rains, it rains here mate
a fortnight once it lasted
Had this bloody place Vietnam
and a war that ain't fair dinkum
Had the swamps and chook house towns
where everythin' is stinkin'
Had me share of countin' days
and boots with ten foot laces
I've had me share, I've had it mate
and up all them foreign places.
