Paula

Oh bruiser, Oh bruiser
You’re on your way back home
You leave this blessed Australia
With nothing to atone
Made lots of friends and travelled vast
Loved by all and sundry
No task to great or even small
Like glasses on a Monday
You filled a gap at Nelly’s
Like only you could fill
There’s even time for Billy
And those thank you’s in the till
So easily offended
Being soft in speech and heart
On you I’ll not give out again
As from us you now do part
Like some of those before you
That special year has ended
But the love and warmth that you did show
Will always, be remembered
By all of us, at Durty Nelly’s, Paddington, we taught ya
That there’ll always be a place for you
So, céad míle fáilte
