The Fellow From Koroit

The fellow from Koroit is broad shouldered and tall
Compared to him most others seem rather small
I last saw him in Melbourne in late May in the Fall
Walking towards a tram stop up through Bourke Street Mall
He greeted me with a cheery good day
Saying sorry mate i cannot tarry i am on my way
Up to Spencer Street to board the Mildura train
So goodbye and good luck until we meet again
The fellow from Koroit a man amongst men
With a handshake we parted i've not seen him since then
Near the prime of his life he has turned twenty three
So happy go lucky footloose and carefree
Many roads and rail tracks through the big Land he has travelled up and down
The handsome brown haired young man from old Koroit Town.
