this here's the story 'bout ginger faye   packed her blush and made her way   from uva the story of ginger faye   pretty as a picture tall as a man   firepole-thin with a sunbed tan   if anyone can make it down there   she can   a half a world away...   the story of ginger faye      the broken dreams of ginger faye   her finger sports a rock   one that couldn't be digest   in the belly of a croc   the broken dreams of ginger faye   an unknown jewel of the usa   right before she could say "g'day" she   got pulled from the dock   in the jaws of a croc      this here's the story   'bout you know who   sat 'neath a log   in the bottom of a swamp   for a day or two without a thing to do   took a trip on a roll of death   put up a fight 'til out of breath   no fine in nature for body theft   maybe time in a sidney zoo...   what else you gonna do      CHORUS      you know now to never prompt attack   we fetched you once   but he came to claim you back      now there's a legend called ginger faye   took her name and opened a bar down   queensland way called ginger faye   what's a poor young yank to do   when they blow her tune   on a didgeridoo   the one's in the dark are very few   about the legend of ginger faye   half a world away      CHORUS
