Hey Bazza, or Izzy, or anybody....

There was a British version of the song "I've Been Everywhere, Man", as well as an Australian and a Kiwi and an American version (sung by Johnny Cash, among others)

My question, if anyone can help: where can I get the lyrics to the British version?

@McTag,
Not sure if this is it or not, McT.

Rolf Harris (UK)

I was humpin' my bluey on the dusty Oodnadatta road,
When along came a semi with a high and canvas-covered load.
If you're goin' to Oodnadatta, mate, with me you can ride.
So I climbed in the cabin and I settled down inside.
He asked me if I'd seen a road with so much dust and sand.
I said (spoken): Listen, mate, I've travelled ev'ry road in this here land.

CHO: 'Cos I've been ev'rywhere, man,
I've been ev'rywhere, man;
Crossed the desert sand, man;
I've breathed the mountain air, man.
Of travel I've had my share, man;
I've been ev'rywhere.

I've been to Tullamore, Seymour, Lismore, Mooloolaba,
Nambour Maroochydore, Kilmore, Murwillumbah,
Birdsville, Emmaville, Wallaville, Cunnarnulla,
Condamine, Strathpine, Proserpine, Ulladulla,
Darwin, Gin Gin, Deniliquin, Muckadilla,
Wallambilla, Boggabilla, Kumbarilla, I'm a killer.

Moree, Taree, Jerilderie, Bambaroo,
Toowoomba, Gunnedah, Caringbah, Woolloomooloo,
Dalveen, Tamborine, Engadine, Jindabyne,
Lithgow, Casino, Boggabri, Gundagai,
Narrabri, Tibooburra, Megalong, Wyong, Tuggerawong, Wanganella,
Morella, Augathella, Brindabella, I'm the teller.

Wollongong, Geelong, Kurrajong, Mullumbimby,
Mittagong, Molong, Grong Grong, Goondiwindi,
Yarra Yarra, Bouindarra, Wallangarra, Turramurra,
Boggabri, Gundagai, Narrabri, Tibooburra,
Gulgong, Adelong, Billabong, Cabramatta,
Parramatta, Wangaratta, Coolangatta, what's it matter.

Ettalong, Dandenong, Woodenbong, Ballarat,
Canberra, Milperra, Unanderra, Captain's Flat,
Cloncurry, River Murray, Kurri Kurri, Girraween,
Terrigal, Fingal, Stockinbingal, Collaroy and Narrabeen,
Bendigo, Dorrigo, Bangalow, Indooroopilly,
Kirribilli, Yeerongpilly, Wollondilly, don't be silly.

I've been here, there, ev'rywhere,
I've been ev'rywhere.

Orright, mate, you've been ev'ry place but one, and ya don't need my help t'get there.

Izzie

@Rockhead,
Hey Mac...

found this on here
http://www.mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=49861&messages=63&page=1

Well, I've been ev'rywhere.

I was drivin' my minimotor way down by the sea
When a scruffy-lookin' hitchhiker thumbed a lift from me.
I said, "Hop up inside, boy. Where you plan to go from there?"
He says, "I don't give a continental, castle boy (?), 'cause I've been ev'rywhere."

[Speeding up:]
One, two, one two three four.

CHORUS: I've been ev'rywhere, man.
I've been ev'rywhere, man.
Never a trouble or care, man.
I've never paid me fare, man,
And of travel I've had me share, man.
I've been ev'rywhere.

1. Been to Bradford, Guildford, Dartford, Littlehampton,
Bedford, Chingford, Hereford, Wolverhampton,
Shrewsbury, Canterbury, Aylesbury, Liverpool,
Scunthorpe, Sandthorpe??,Mablethorpe, Hartlepool
Whitehall, Bramhall, Mildenhall, Davenport
Newport, Southport, Stockport, "Hi Sport!". CHORUS

2. Been to Farnborough, Edinburgh, Peterborough, Petersham,
Middlesborough, Loughborough, Scarborough, Walthamstow,
..., ..., ..., l...,
..., ..., Hounslow, Tipperary
Hempstead, Wanstead, ...stead, Woodstock,
B..., ..., ..., "Watcha Cock!". CHORUS

SPOKEN: Change Gear. (sound effect of manual gear change)

3. Been to Weymouth, Yarmouth, Bournemouth, Huddersfield,
Lewisham, Faversham, Portesham, Sheffield,
Land's End, Mile End, Southend, Birkenhead,
Birmingham, Nottingham, Gillingham, Holyhead,
Cambridge, Tonbridge, Knightsbridge, ...,
Edgware, Brockweir, Carstairs, "Who cares?" CHORUS

4. SLOWLY, HESITATINGLY: I've been"to"hey, this is difficult!"I've been to"
Llandudno, Llanelli, Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwll. . . (fails before completing this place name!)
SPOKEN: No, it's no use. I'll never get those Scottish place names in a million years. Let's get back to the English version.

5. BACK TO FAST TEMPO: I've been to Westminster, Southminster, Kidderminster, Accrington,
Eastbourne, Southbourne, Sittingbourne, Paddington,
Bolton, Paignton, Stockton, Inverness,
Renwick, Brunswick, Chiswick, Dungeness
Mansfield, Sheffield, Enfield, ...,
..., ..., ..., .... CHORUS

I've been here, there, ev'rywhere.
I've been ev'rywhere.


and then there is this...
