1) Mum and Dad and Denny saw the passing out parade at Puckapunyal
IT was a long march from cadets
The sixth battalion was the next to tour
and it was me who drew the card
We did Canungra and shoal water before we left
chorus 1
And Townsville lined the footpaths as we marched to the quay
This clipping from the paper shows us young and strong and clean
And theres me in my slouch hat with my SLR and greens
God help me I was on - ly nine teen
2) From Vung Tau riding chinooks to the dust at Nui Dat
