Home Among the Gum Trees (also known as “Give Me a Home Among the Gum Trees”) is an iconic Australian folk and country song. One of the best-known recordings is the version by Frankie Davidson, released in 1982. It appeared on his album Home Among The Gum Trees and later on several Australian country music compilations.

The song became famous for its humorous and distinctly Australian lyrics, featuring references to gum trees (eucalyptus trees), kangaroos, billabongs, and rural life. Over time, it became something of an unofficial anthem of the Australian countryside and is still widely recognized across Australia.

The original song was written by Wally Johnson and Bob Brown in the 1970s, but Frankie Davidson’s upbeat country version brought it mainstream popularity.
