By homestead hut and shearing shed	A
By railroad coach and track	B
By lonely graves of our brave dead	A
Up Country and Out Back	B
To where 'neath glorious the clustered stars	C
The dreamy plains expand	D
My home lies wide a thousand miles	E
In the Never Never Land	D
	-
It lies beyond the farming belt	F
Wide wastes of scrub and plain	G
A blazing desert in the drought	H
A lake land after rain	G
To the sky line sweeps the waving grass	I
Or whirls the scorching sand	D
A phantom land a mystic land	D
The Never Never Land	D
	-
Where lone Mount Desolation lies	J
Mounts Dreadful and Despair	K
'Tis lost beneath the rainless skies	J
In hopeless deserts there	K
It spreads nor' west by No Man's Land	D
Where clouds are seldom seen	L
To where the cattle stations lie	M
Three hundred miles between	L
	-
The drovers of the Great Stock Routes	N
The strange Gulf country know	O
Where travelling from the southern drought	H
The big lean bullocks go	O
And camped by night where plains lie wide	P
Like some old ocean's bed	A
The watchmen in the starlight ride	P
Round fifteen hundred head	A
	-
And west of named and numbered days	Q
The shearers walk and ride	P
Jack Cornstalk and the Ne'er do well	R
And the grey beard side by side	P
They veil their eyes from moon and stars	C
And slumber on the sand	D
Sad memories steep as years go round	S
In Never Never Land	D
	-
By lonely huts north west of Bourke	T
Through years of flood and drought	H
The best of English black sheep work	T
Their own salvation out	H
Wild fresh faced boys grown gaunt and brown	U
Stiff lipped and haggard eyed	P
They live the Dead Past grimly down	U
Where boundary riders ride	P
	-
The College Wreck who sank beneath	V
Then rose above his shame	W
Tramps west in mateship with the man	X
Who cannot write his name	W
'Tis there where on the barren track	B
No last half crust's begrudged	P
Where saint and sinner side by side	P
Judge not and are not judged	P
	-
Oh rebels to society	P
The Outcasts of the West	P
Oh hopeless eyes that smile for me	P
And broken hearts that jest	P
The pluck to face a thousand miles	E
The grit to see it through	Y
The communion perfected	P
And I am proud of you	Y
	-
The Arab to true desert sand	P
The Finn to fields of snow	O
The Flax stick turns to Maoriland	P
While the seasons come and go	O
And this old fact comes home to me	P
And will not let me rest	P
However barren it may be	P
Your own land is the best	P
	-
And lest at ease I should forget	P
True mateship after all	Z
My water bag and billy yet	P
Are hanging on the wall	Z
And if my fate should show the sign	A2
I'd tramp to sunsets grand	P
With gaunt and stern eyed mates of mine	A2
In the Never Never Land	P
