i like this song
Allá en el rancho grande
Allá donde vívía
Hablá una rancherita
Que alegre me decía
Que alegre me decía:
"Te voy hacer unas calzones
comos los que esa el ranchero
Los comenzo de lana
y los acabo de hierro."

There in the great ranch
There where she used to live
There used to be a cowgirl
Who joyfully used to tell me
Who joyfully used to tell me
"I'm going to make some trousers
like those which the cowboy wears
I'm starting them with wool
and I'm finishing them with iron."

1. One more.
Home Among The Gum Tree's

I've been around the world a couple of times or maybe more
I've seen the sights, I've had delights on every foreign shore
But when my friends all ask me the place that I adore
I tell them right away

Give me a home among the gum trees with lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, a kangaroo
A clothes-line out the back, verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair-air

You can see me in the kitchen cookin' up a roast or Vegemite on toast
Just you and me, a cup of tea
Later on we'll settle down and mull up on the porch
And watch the possums play

Give me a home among the gum trees with lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, a kangaroo
A clothes-line out the back, verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair-air

Some people like their houses with fences all around
Others live in mansions and some beneath the ground
But me, I like the bush, you know, with rabbits running 'round
And a pumpkin vine out the back

Give me a home among the gum trees with lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, a kangaroo
A clothes-line out the back, verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair-air

Give me a home among the gum trees with lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, a kangaroo
A clothes-line out the back, verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair...
