Old Time Country Halls - Slim Dusty[00:00:01]
Hey[00:00:12]
As I pick up my guitar to sing another song[00:00:12]
I hear the walls of this old hall[00:00:17]
You've done this thing too long[00:00:19]
You know you've been around for years[00:00:23]
I guess you've shown us all[00:00:26]
I talk like this when I reminisce[00:00:28]
With an old time country hall[00:00:30]
I joined a tent show as a kid[00:00:34]
With a dream and an old guitar[00:00:36]
De Silvers All-Star Cavalcade[00:00:39]
And Dante was the star[00:00:41]
He taught me lots[00:00:45]
About the game today I understand[00:00:46]
He was a great magician Dante[00:00:50]
Was a fine old man[00:00:52]
I'm a howling cattle camp crooner[00:00:56]
I'm an old time dinosaur[00:00:58]
Hey let me sing where the rafters ring[00:01:01]
In an old time country hall[00:01:03]
I've been on the road for thirty years[00:01:18]
But Dante could double that[00:01:21]
And you'll find his faded posters[00:01:23]
Still in some halls way out back[00:01:25]
I like to go back stage[00:01:29]
And dream sometimes and just recall[00:01:31]
The shows I've had the good and bad[00:01:34]
Shared with these country halls[00:01:36]
Take the old Town Hall Kalgoorlie[00:01:40]
With it's old time charm and grace[00:01:42]
That your multi million complexes never will replace[00:01:45]
All glass and steel and concrete[00:01:51]
Some large and some too small[00:01:53]
And let me sing where the rafters ring[00:01:56]
In an old time country hall[00:01:58]
We showed last night in the school of arts[00:02:13]
And the town was real run-down[00:02:15]
You'll find so many towns like[00:02:18]
That today as you move around[00:02:20]
Yeah the wind of change[00:02:23]
Is blowin' up such an economic low[00:02:25]
The old time shows we used to know[00:02:29]
Will soon be off the road[00:02:31]
I'm a howlin' cattle-hand crooner[00:02:35]
I'm an old time dinosaur[00:02:37]
Hey let me sing where the rafters ring[00:02:39]
In an old time country hall[00:02:42]
In an old time country hall[00:02:45]
In an old time country hall[00:02:47]
