Far Grandest Homestead Of All - Slim Dusty[00:00:00]

In the shade of a friendly old gum tree[00:00:05]

A dying young stockman there lay[00:00:09]

As the sun went to rest o'er the hills in the west[00:00:14]

At the close of a long summers day[00:00:18]

His comrades have gathered around him[00:00:23]

As his twilight hours rolled on[00:00:28]

And the message he gave them are leaving[00:00:32]

While I've humbly put into song[00:00:37]

I leave you dear pals of the bush land[00:00:44]

I bid you farewell with a smile[00:00:48]

Don't let there be woes my time's come to go[00:00:53]

But 'twill only be for a short while[00:00:57]

In a land where temptation is banished[00:01:01]

Where sorrows will never recall[00:01:06]

I'll meet you up there with our Saviour[00:01:10]

At the far grandest homestead of all[00:01:15]

"There'll be cattle so grand for each muster[00:01:24]

On the plains roaming wide way out there[00:01:28]

And clover so green such as we've never seen[00:01:33]

And a bush like the maiden so fair[00:01:38]

When the bridle and saddle are covered[00:01:43]

With cobwebs and dust on the wall[00:01:47]

Just remember I'll need them up yonder[00:01:52]

At the far grandest homestead of all[00:01:57]

Tell mother back home who is waitin[00:02:01]

Although it is our parting day[00:02:06]

Tell her not to weep those vows I did keep[00:02:10]

And I'll meet her in heaven some day[00:02:15]

Shadows are creeping around me[00:02:20]

And thundering who's beat I hear fall[00:02:24]

Oh it's time to be ready and riding[00:02:28]

For the far grandest homestead of all[00:02:33]
