lyrics

We searched for him upon the high
We searched for him upon the low
There is no trace where he did go
Bessie where’s your husband?

We searched for him upon the high
We searched for him upon the low
There is no trace where he did go
Bessie where’s your husband?

Did you search Port Melbourne far and wide
Did you search around the countryside
In the pubs the drunks all cried
Oh Bessie where’s your husband?

Did you kick him out wahen you caught him out
Was he in the Bridge where he never shouts
Did he just go walkabout
Oh Bessie where’s your husband?

Did you murder him when he went to sleep
Did you have him sorted on the cheap
Is he buried in your garden deep
Oh Bessie where’s your husband

Did he get called up did he go to war
Did he run away with the girl next door
does he not love you no more
Oh Bessie where’s your husband
