Alphonse From Ostrava

Alphonse from Ostrava of the Czech Republic from here far away
Has not been back to his home City for many a day
He arrived in Geelong in Victoria six years ago in May
But with a year old daughter and an Aussie wife he is in Geelong for a long stay
In his twenty seventh year in the prime of his life
Alphonse is devoted to his daughter and to his Aussie wife
He says he will visit Ostrava with his wife and child next Spring
When the nesting songbirds in the parks and groves do whistle and sing
Far from his landlocked European Country in Geelong by the Pacific shore
Alphonse was homesick for awhile but not anymore
A tall and dark haired handsome carpenter in his physical prime
He is happy and settled in Geelong on his side he has time
In Geelong in Victoria Alphonse from Ostrava is a happy man
Far south of the City where his life's journey began.
