lyrics

Ebagoola Gold

Hey John Dickie were you a bit lucky or just plain tricky
Hey John Dickie were you a man of fortune or a man of tenacity
It wasn’t the first time you ever struck gold
It wasn’t the first time you were a bit bold
It wasn’t the first time you left them in the cold
Hey John Dickie you’re a man of gold

Ebagoola Ebagoola Ebagoola Gold

John Dickie took his turn at the turn of the century
Fossicking for gold was part of his philosophy
He left the Palmer River was working every gully
Then at Ebagoola they say he struck it lucky

Ebagoola Ebagoola Ebagoola Gold

John Dickie on his own the dillybag and dynamite
Tell me the story ‘bout skeleton and stringybark
Gold in the reef gold in the creek
Then at Ebagoola they claim he struck it deep

Ebagoola Ebagoola Ebagoola Gold
Hey John Dickie were you a bit lucky or just plain tricky
Ebagoola
Ebagoola Ebagoola Gold
Hey John Dickie were you a man of fortune or a man of tenacity
