about

Echo Deer returns with new single Ducky, a folk tale about love and devotion with a distinctive ’60s feel.

Written, sung and banjoed by Hollie Matthew, Ducky is a joyful tribute to her ducks and a timely reminder that we all have to quack sometimes.

They'll be launching the single on Friday 30 April at Yulli's Brews in Alexandria. Check out their Facebook for details or contact brewery@yullis.com.au to book.

lyrics

Lyrics:

One and two, another makes three
Three little brown duckies.
One was made for sitting, the other made for swimming
And the last one a beauty queen.

Traveled ‘round together, in every type of weather
To see what a duck could see.
Tried to make a quacking in any kind of fashion
But a duck can get so tired.

Ducky I’m on your side
There’ll be no fox tonight.
Ducky I’m on your side
We all got to quack sometimes.

Inner city living can be hard and unforgiving
But not with a duck by your side.
People come from near and far to wherever they are
To watch them play in a paint roller tray.

Then the feathers started sprouting and the quacks started mounting
It was time for the heat and the hay.
Can on down to Piggy's to see the doggies and the chickies
But it’s a big old world outside.

(Chorus x2)
