If you're a sporting person
And you feel you're past your prime
To compete at younger levels
Then autumn is the time
To be in South West Queensland
For now they're taking names
Of all who want to enter in
The South West Master's Games
To be held in Cunnamulla
Where you'll be a welcome guest
A town sometimes referred to
As the Athens of the West
Set upon an open plain
Beside the Warrego
It's an island of the inland
Archipelago
No need to bring much with you
We have the lot right here
Your requirements will be catered for
With courtesy and cheer
So enter in the games out here
And see this charming town
Surely one of the rarer gems
Set in Queensland's crown
The games events have something
For nearly everyone
For those who do athletics
Or fancy triathlon
A ten K run will give you
An idea of the town
And there's cycling, if you like to do
Your walking sitting down
If ball games are your chosen sports
And the rest you don't like much
You can have a go a netball
Or try a game of touch
There'll be events in swimming
Where you might find some fame
Or you might like to register
For the Seniors Games
So get your nominations in
Enjoy some fun filled days
From the 23rd of April
Until the 2nd of May
Come out to Cunnamulla
A place where there's no hurry
Eight hundred west of Brisbane
And years away from worry.
