      It has to be done....

      "I've been everywhere". Lyrics by Geoff Mack, as sung by Lucky Starr (1962)

      Well, I was humpin’ my bluey on the dusty Oodnadatta road,
      When along came a semi with a high and canvas-covered load.
      (Spoken) “If you’re goin’ to Oodnadatta, mate, um, with me you can ride.”
      So I climbed in the cabin and I settled down inside.
      He asked me if I’d seen a road with so much dust and sand, I said
      “Listen, mate, I’ve travelled ev’ry road in this here land.”

      Chorus:
      Cos “I’ve been everywhere, man,
      I’ve been everywhere, man.
      ‘Cross the deserts bare, man;
      I’ve breathed the mountain air, man.
      Of travel I’ve had my share, man.
      I’ve been ev’rywhere.

      Been to:
      Tullamore, Seymour, Lismore, Mooloolaba,
      Nambour, Maroochydore, Kilmore, Murwillumbah,
      Birdsville, Emmaville, Wallaville, Cunnamulla,
      Condamine, Strathpine, Proserpine, Ulladulla,
      Darwin, Gin Gin, Deniliquin, Muckadilla,
      Wallumbilla, Boggabilla, Kumbarilla,
      I’m a killer.

      Chorus
      (Spoken) “Yeah but listen here, mate, have you been to…”

      Lithgow, Casino, Brigalow and Narromine,
      Megalong, Wyong, Tuggerawong, Wangarella,
      Morella, Augathella, Brindabella, I’m the feller.

      Chorus
      (Spoken) “Yeah, I know that, but have you been to…”

      Gulgong, Adelong, Billabong, Cabramatta,
      Parramatta, Wangaratta, Coolangatta, what’s it matter?

      Chorus
      (Spoken) “Yeah, look that’s fine, but how about…”

      I’ve been to Ettalong, Dandenong, Woodenbong, Ballarat,
      Canberra, Milperra, Unanderra, Captains Flat,

      Kirribilli, Yeerongpilly, Wollondilly, don’t be silly.

      Chorus
      I’ve been here, there, ev’rywhere, I’ve been ev’rywhere.

      (Spoken) “Okay, mate, you’ve been ev’ry place except one, and ya don’t need my help t’get there.”
      (Sound of door slamming and truck driving off.)

      [This the original. Many other versions have been done for other regions around the world since. I think I've been to about half of these.]

        First thing I thought of when I saw the thread title. And yes - it just begged to be done.

        Scripture before Tradition:
        but that won't prevent others from
        taking it upon themselves to deprive you
        of the right to call yourself Christian.
