kooyong dollar

i rent a flat in highett

i eat at hungry jacks

i was born in the fifties

on the wrong side of the tracks

i was married but she left me for a plumber from prahran

now i see my kids on weekends

i'm a halfway happy man

but when i get my hands on a kooyong dollar

i'm gonna be a hard act to follow

i'm gonna rip of this dirty blue collar

when i get my hands on a kooyong dollar

kooyong dollar

kooyong dollar

well

i'm from the south of south road

the great artistic void

but i know a great brett whitely

drysdale or boyd

i love a classic landscape

i know a good red wine

and lately i've been thinkin' that the good life should be mine

but when i get my hands on a kooyong dollar

i'm gonna be a hard act to follow

that cheap champagne will be real hard to swallow

when i get my hands on a kooyong dollar

kooyong dollar

kooyong dollar

just grows and grows

flows and flows and it flows and flows

but when i get my hands on a kooyong dollar

i'm gonna be a hard act to follow

i'm gonna rip of this dirty blue collar

when i get my hands on a kooyong dollar

i've tried so hard to shake it and lose that convict streak

i'm an a grade mechanic

i get 450 clear a week

now my ford dropped a tail shaft on scotch college hill

but i know it won't be too long till i get my fingers in the till

just grows and grows

flows and flows and it flows and flows

when i get my hands on a kooyong dollar

i'm gonna be a hard act to follow

that cheap champagne will be real hard to swallow

when i get my hands on a. when i get my hands on a kooyong dollar

i'm gonna be a hard act to follow

that cheap champagne will be real hard to swallow

when i get my hands on a kooyong dollar
