It nestles in the valley, not far from my home.
A small and scattered village, where Ben Hall used to roam.
The hills rise steeply around it, the river flows slowly by.
It's on the Hume Highway, twenty miles from Gundagai.
The scenery all around it, and for many miles beyond.
It's something to remember if you come to Jugiong.
