O, A Hundred Years for the Ocean Road
O Yes, Oh!
A Hundred Years all carved and mowed
A Hundred Years ago
Yes the Ocean Road is a sight to see
O Yes, Oh!
With it's curving slopes and Steep Ravine
A Hundred Years ago
It'll take you down along the coast
O Yes, Oh!
Those turns will 'ave you white as a ghost
A Hundred Years ago
Well it once were coined a "tolerable road"
O Yes, Oh!
Where the light first shone and the wind did blow
A Hundred Years ago
Well the light it guides 'round Cape Otway
O Yes, Oh!
And onwards through the treacherous strait
A Hundred Years ago
The road was built by returning vets
O Yes, Oh!
To commemorate - lest we forget
A Hundred Years ago
Well the Ocean Road is a very fine path
O Yes, Oh!
It'll stay in your mind til long long aft
A Hundred Years ago
It'll take you down to a place called Lorne
O Yes, Oh!
A place you'll wish you 'ad been born
A Hundred Years ago
To the festival of Performin' Arts
O Yes, Oh!
I raise to you a foggy old glass...
A Hundred Years ago
