Lyrics
- See all the trains are crowded
Just listen while I speak
You ask where are they going
Say Folks! it’s Home Town week
Chorus
To that dear old place with its sunny skies
Where a welcome look will greet you from so many eyes
My Home Town, I love you
In sunshine and rain
And the day I hear you calling
Though the Heavens may be falling
My baggage I’ll be hauling
To dear old Castlemaine
- For all our friends will gather
Our town will be so gay
So catch our Home Town spirit
And do a move today
Sung here by Fred Feild:
