1
By a warm electric heater and a softly padded chair
2
In a loungeroom brightly lighted by a glowing chandelier
3
Since my early days of drovin' the years have taken toll
4
But I somehow miss my swag wrap by a fire of Gidgee coal
5
When I wake from sleep each morning and I ring the bedside bell
6
The maid brings in my breakfast and she fills my pipe as well
7
There are cakes and sweetened coffee on a tray of sparkling gold
8
But I miss black tea and damper by a fire of Gidgee coal
9
I am driven' out each evening by a chauffer spruce and neat
10
Through the flowered parks and gardens and the crowded city streets
11
But I drift back through the ages while the big car softly rolls
12
To a stock route and a wagonette and a fire of Gidgee coal
13
I attend all social parties in the rich parts of the town
14
Drinking wine from fancy glasses as the waiters go their rounds
15
But I'd rather share a bottle with those drovin' mates of old
16
In a pair of dusty moleskins by a fire of Gidgee coal
17
In a pair of dusty moleskins by a fire of Gidgee coal
