Living Next Door to Alice Aussie Pub Version Twenty-four years she lived next door, Always in the know. If a magpie stole your sandwich, Alice seemed to know. Then one day the removal truck Rolled up nice and slow. Half the street stood watching there, Wondering where shed go. Chorus Alice, Alice, Where ya off to now? Alice, Alice, Whos your neighbour now? Well miss your roses, Well miss your dog, Well even miss your cat. So raise your glass and wish her well, Now how about that! Now the new bloke mows at dawn, Starts before first light. Uses every noisy tool Morning, noon and night. So we all look down the street With a knowing grin, Maybe Alice wasnt bad Perhaps wed have her back again! Final Chorus Alice, Alice, Hope youre doing fine. Alice, Alice, Drop in any time. Well have a beer, Well have a laugh, And tell the same old tales, Heres to good old neighbours, And friendships that never fail!
