Yallourn

My hometown is just a hole in the ground
My hometown is nowhere to be found
My hometown is just a hole in the ground

When I was young, I walked through the streets of Yallourn
I remember the cinema and I can still smell the popcorn
The people back then, were the salt of the earth
Give you the shirt off their backs for what it was worth

My hometown is just a hole in the ground
My hometown is nowhere to be found
My hometown is just a hole in the ground

The people back then knew the time would come
Where everything they had, had to be sold
The people had to move to nearby towns
Cause they were sitting on gold
In the form of brown coal

My hometown is just a hole in the ground
My hometown is nowhere to be found
My hometown is just a hole in the ground
