He's a Gippsland boy and he's seen some years
Cruelled by the weather lost love and beer
A workin' man his father's son
Rollin' through those rollin' hills in search of the son

He's a Gippsland boy under a cross
That guides him home whenever he's lost
Did his time in Vietnam
Rollin' on those rollin' hills to the tune of Uncle Sam

He sailed back home on the song of the wind
That cried in his soul for the blood of his kin
Raised a family chained to the wheel
Rollin' through those rollin' hills he forgot how to feel

He's a Gippsland boy healed by time
To write a life in beautiful rhyme
A young country girl stares out to sea
Rollin' through those rollin' hills he's wonderin' where she be

He's a Gippsland boy and he's seen some years
Cruelled by the weather lost love and beer (tears)
A workin' man he's finally found
Rollin' through those rollin' hills at peace in his hometown
