Subject: Alternate Lyr Add: I Hate Wogs (Eric Bogle)
G'day again,
As I dragged out the assorted Eric Bogle sonbooks, I just noticed that the original(1980) book has a different ending to the fourth stanza:
" ...
Those lazy migrant bastards do, they ever bloody work!
For there's plenty of jobs goin', though I've not worked since school
May be a bloody racist pig, but I'm no bloody fool!"
Maybe Eric decided that he could be a little more ironic!
REgards,
Bob Bolton
