Three Rivers Hotel (三河酒店) - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]
From Townsville to Greenvale[00:00:08]
We're building a line[00:00:09]
Through the ranges and gorges[00:00:12]
To the great nickel mine[00:00:14]
The long days are dusty and hotter than hell[00:00:17]
And that's why we all worship Three Rivers Hotel[00:00:20]
It's Thiess Brothers camp[00:00:26]
On the banks of the Star[00:00:28]
Where men from all nations and walks of life are[00:00:31]
And it's funny to listen to the stories they tell[00:00:35]
Every night 'round the bar[00:00:38]
In Three Rivers Hotel[00:00:40]
We curse at the things[00:00:45]
That go wrong through the day[00:00:47]
And vow that we'll snatch it [00:00:49]
Go far away[00:00:52]
But when day is done[00:00:54]
And we're soon feeling well[00:00:55]
And laughter rings out[00:00:57]
From Three Rivers Hotel[00:00:59]
There's Wesley the barman[00:01:04]
And young Irish Joe[00:01:06]
Serving the booze[00:01:08]
And collecting the dough[00:01:10]
What a stir they would cause[00:01:12]
If they ever should tell[00:01:14]
All the secrets[00:01:16]
They've learned in Three Rivers Hotel[00:01:17]
On the night after payday[00:01:27]
There's fun and romance[00:01:28]
It's a night[00:01:31]
For the fam'lies to sing and to dance[00:01:32]
You can let down your hair[00:01:36]
And come out of your shell[00:01:37]
And do your own thing in Three Rivers Hotel[00:01:39]
And if you listen to the bosses[00:01:45]
When the night's gettin' late[00:01:47]
On the progress[00:01:50]
They're makin' the best in the state[00:01:51]
They'd be finished this line[00:01:54]
And this maint'nance as well[00:01:56]
If they worked like[00:01:57]
They bragged in Three Rivers Hotel[00:01:58]
And if you think[00:02:08]
You can drink we've got money to back[00:02:09]
On stayers like Cass and old grader Jack[00:02:13]
And they tell me old Custer gives everyone hell[00:02:17]
When he gets[00:02:20]
On the booze in three Rivers Hotel[00:02:21]
Yeah he's a whopper[00:02:25]
When this job is finished we'll pack up and go[00:02:27]
To another construction still chasing big dough[00:02:31]
But wherever I wander my memory will dwell[00:02:35]
On those happy days in Three Rivers Hotel[00:02:39]
(Let's sing together now)[00:02:43]
From Townsville to Greenvale we're building a line[00:02:45]
Through the ranges[00:02:49]
And gorges to the great nickel mine[00:02:50]
The long days are dusty and hotter than hell[00:02:54]
And that's why we all worship Three Rivers Hotel[00:02:57]
(Yeah come on Custer)[00:03:02]
From Townsville to Greenvale we're building a line[00:03:04]
Through the ranges[00:03:08]
And gorges to the great nickel mine[00:03:09]
The long days are dusty and hotter than hell[00:03:13]
And that's why we all worship Three Rivers Hotel[00:03:16]
