Old Bush Mates Of Mine (1997 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty[00:00:00]
There's a far off distant valley where the nulla moon[00:00:06]
Shines bright[00:00:12]
I can see it all so clearly for in dreams[00:00:14]
I'm there tonight[00:00:19]
I go wanderin' through my memories and my restless heart[00:00:21]
Beats time[00:00:27]
To dwell a while and sadly smile for these old[00:00:29]
Bush mates of mine[00:00:34]
I recall the summer evenin's away out on the farm[00:00:38]
And the dances that we went to in a neighbours[00:00:46]
Old slab barn[00:00:51]
I can see the sawdust risin' as we pranced around[00:00:53]
The room[00:00:59]
The old violin and accordion pumpin' out an old bush[00:01:01]
Tune[00:01:07]
Happy days with schoolboy cobbers there was shorty ron and[00:01:26]
Jim[00:01:31]
We'd swim beneath the willows chasin' turtles down the stream[00:01:33]
Oh the bushland was just a playground beneath the friendly[00:01:41]
Sky[00:01:47]
My thoughts still go to the land I know where[00:01:49]
The big blue mountains rise[00:01:52]
Saddlin' up for the springtime muster down at the old[00:01:57]
Stock yards[00:02:02]
When the brandin' fires were smokin' and the day was[00:02:05]
Long and hard[00:02:10]
I can still hear the old man swearin' get a[00:02:12]
Move on you blokes don't crawl[00:02:16]
The sun is high and the dust clouds fly as[00:02:20]
We grab a steer and call[00:02:24]
I'm so sad for dear old homeward I've been[00:02:29]
Away so long[00:02:34]
I hope the folks are listenin' and I hope they[00:02:37]
Hear this song[00:02:42]
For I'll soon be back out yonder and you can[00:02:44]
Bet your boots I'll shine[00:02:49]
And sing at night by the lantern light with those[00:02:52]
Old bush mates of mine[00:02:56]
