'Those who Know me call me a drifter .. they don't know I'll stop my rambling ... at the end of every highway... I'm going home boys, going home'. When I last heard it 26 years ago Jo Beames from Mulga Bill's Bicycle Band had substituted some Tasmanian place names in lieu of (?) the original references to a river valley in England. Any help please?

Regards, John

I believe I have it under the title "California". Will dig up the old books and let you know.

a couple more lines are "they don't know that someday, somewhere, somebody's gonna make me settle down"

John, what a coincidence, it's right here, at this time, in another thread titled "California could not hold me". (I know, it's not easy to find the gold among all that garbage, sigh).
