"Girls in our Town" is a song about the life of young women in Newcastle, Australia, written by Bob Hudson. It was a top 40 hit for Margret Roadknight in 1976, and was subsequently performed by Judy Small.[1] From October 1993 RoadKnight was a member of an a cappella quartet, Girls in Your Town, with Jarnie Birmingham, Mara Kiek, and Moya Simpson.[2][3]

He liked the song and decided to put it onto low rotation for three weeks, in which time it raced up the charts and made it into the Top 20, which in turn led to further national exposure with an appearance on Countdown." , Australasian Music & Popular Culture 1964-1975:MILESAGO
