Wonthaggi - John Williamson

If ever you were here in winter

It comes in off the Strait

You’d know why they call it 'wind and rain'

Lucky we’re here in autumn

But I would keep you warm

If ever we’re stuck in winter in Wonthaggi

But we’ll be cruising north bound

Away from the frosty moon

Murwillumbah or maybe Billinudgel

Or up through the Border Ranges

And down through the Numinbah

Or further on through to Montville or Maleny

Or somewhere where it’s warm

May, June, July, you don’t go to Wonthaggi

Check out the big bouffants

Like hairy air balloons

Guaranteed to hold in the wind

There’s a titter in the town

The women are 'tizzying up'

Not hard to guess there’s a wedding in Wonthaggi
