Banjo's Man (1992 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty[00:00:00]
He question is still asked today who is banjo's man[00:00:03]
That man from snowy river renown throughout the land[00:00:08]
Who ran those wild bush horses thru that rugged countryside[00:00:13]
Who was that man he wrote of who made that famous ride[00:00:18]
Some say he was jack Riley from down near corryong[00:00:25]
They say the man could really ride the name to him belong[00:00:31]
The gold Brit bribes and panders they all could lay a claim[00:00:36]
But banjo singled no one out that's why there was no name[00:00:42]
Banjo's man is riding he's riding with the best[00:00:48]
In the ranges where in winter time it snows[00:00:52]
He's riding now to reel them yes riding on the wind[00:00:57]
In the country where the snowy river flows oh yes[00:01:01]
Now banjo knew this country he knew it's riders well[00:01:10]
He spent time in the ranges where snowy riders dwell[00:01:16]
He saw them ride full gallop swinging stock whips in[00:01:21]
Their hands[00:01:24]
And as a tribute to them all he penned his famous man[00:01:27]
Those men who roamed the mountains in search of straying stock[00:01:33]
Who spent their lives on horseback in those rugged mountain blocks[00:01:38]
They rode the hills and gorges where snowy river ran[00:01:44]
And each and everyone of them could ride like banjo's man[00:01:49]
He saw them running brumbies on the steep an timbered slopes[00:01:57]
Catch the brumbies at a gallop with their green hide catching ropes[00:02:02]
He saw that they had whipped the wildest country in this land[00:02:08]
And so was formed the legend of the famous banjo man[00:02:13]
Hey[00:02:17]
Banjo's man is riding he's riding with the best[00:02:19]
In the ranges where in winter time it snows[00:02:23]
He's riding now to reel them yes riding on the wind[00:02:28]
In the country where the snowy river flows oh yes[00:02:32]
The legend is still living and I say it always will[00:02:41]
As long as their are brumbies and horsemen in the hills[00:02:46]
For they run them mountain brumbies yes run them till they stand[00:02:52]
And there's horsemen in the snowy yeah as good as banjo's man[00:02:57]
Banjo's man is riding he's riding with the best[00:03:03]
In the ranges where in winter time it snows[00:03:07]
He's riding now to reel them yes riding on the wind[00:03:11]
In the country where the snowy river flows[00:03:16]
Banjo's man is riding he's riding with the best[00:03:21]
In the ranges where in winter time it snows[00:03:25]
Yes he's riding now to reel them yes riding on the wind[00:03:29]
