I'M Going To Australia

I'm going to Australia Da 
A year at the most

I'll try to be like u such a gracious host

So don't fill Ur heart wit a great sorrow

 if I had the shillings I'd be  home tomorrow 

So tell me ma  I love her and not to gloom 

And make sure there's no one in my old room 

I can't wait to see my family. My family the most 

But I've made some great friends I don't like to boast 

So wen the time comes for me to leave 

My mother always told me keep a tissue up Ur sleeve 

Is there work at home I don't know

There's only one way to find out we'll see how we go

Army Man

You went to war when you were young

 I'm sure people thought what has he done 

And when your plane came under fire 

I'm sure being back home was your greatest desire 

You landed in one piece safe and sound 

But that was the easy part I'm sure you found 

Your friends at home were out haven fun 

While you were nestling in a bunker clasping a gun 

The battle of the tunnel is a story still told 

Even in the papers the story was sold 

You made it home and a big family was had 

There's no doubt that were all glad 

My dad my hero the man of the hour 

There's no underestimating this man's power 

Hopefully it won't take another year 

Before we get out and have a beer

Brothers From Different Mothers

I'm not going to say your like family because you are family my brothers from different mothers 

We've had our ups we've had our downs we often act like a pack of clowns 

We like a drink we like a sniff and most of us enjoy a good aul spliff 

We're here to work and make a few bob although there's a few that like to rob 

But once in a while it has to be done sometimes for food sometimes for fun 

The time will come for us to leave hopefully to the euros we want to believe 

We'll never forget this foreign land hopefully we go with a couple of grand 

Friends we are friends we'll be hopefully friends I often see

A Mother's Love

From day one you were the best
There's no doubt that I am blessed 

From nursing my head when it was sore 
To sending me money a million miles or more 

You made me breakfast everyday 
Even on a Friday you gave me some pay 

You walked me to school hand in hand 
When I cut my knee you'd say I'll be grand 

When I was sad you wiped my tears 
And when I was afraid you consoled my fears 

How can I repay you I don't think I can 
Even that now I am a man 

To another country I did roam 
But a I can write you is this poem 

Mother I love you I truly do 
Where would I be without you
