The Ballad of Rooty Hill

I thought this fitting since Rooty Hill is in the media this week. (thanks JULIA)
I grew up in Rooty Hill & listening to this song.
Sung on many occasions when drunk & yes I admit I know all the words.
(I was born in the wrong era - leave me alone...haha)

There’s a chap I knew in Fish Creek,Vic, and he used to sing it, and I’ve always remembered it fondly together with my time in Australia in the mid 80’s.
