HEATHER WILLIS Whitemark Flinder's Island, Tasmania. Tune: Spanish Flea Salted Mutton BirdWell they danced all around the town and they really made the sceneThey danced up and down the bar and, you could tell by the smell, where they had been. Chorus The day the birders came to town, they were led by Dennis Brown, There was Pop and his Missus, and Earl and Big Joyce too, and a salted mutton bird. That's what they had, and you could tell they were glad, To be back off the islands and there in the old Interstate, Drinking bottles of cheap plonk! They'd been out on the Dogs and the weather there was fine They plucked those birds real clean and put them down in a good salt brine. |
