God bless all Fuzzy Wuzzies, for you have all been so kind and helpful to the Australian soldiers. " Yes farewell, Fuzzy Wuzzy, with your skin as black as night; To many you're a heathen, but your heart is made just right. How you've helped Australian soldiers; they thank you every one, And bless you, Fuzzy Wuzzy, for your job so nobly done.".
