Australian Bushmen - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]

Composer：Stan Coster[00:00:07]

I'm a plain Australian bushman and I've drifted far and wide[00:00:14]

I'm a jack of all trades in the bush[00:00:20]

And I say that with pride[00:00:23]

I'm only one of many who are batt'ling in the scrub[00:00:27]

Workin' for an honest wage[00:00:33]

May be to splash in some old pub[00:00:35]

We are ringers fencers shearers[00:00:39]

We are drovers on the track[00:00:42]

We are miners and road builders[00:00:46]

Op'ning up the great outback[00:00:48]

Hard drinkers and hard workers and we give but never lend[00:00:52]

And we wander 'cos we know our goal[00:00:59]

Lies 'round the distant bend[00:01:02]

Our wives are mostly stickers so they sacrifice and save[00:01:19]

In lonely isolation understanding true and brave[00:01:25]

They rouse and scold and nurse us[00:01:31]

When we're getting off the spree[00:01:34]

And I wonder why such women stick to blokes[00:01:38]

Like you and me[00:01:41]

We are precious cooks and rousers thru[00:01:44]

And brumby shooters too[00:01:47]

Horse breakers and truck drivers taking pride in all we do[00:01:51]

Hard drinkers and hard fighters and we give but never lend[00:01:57]

And we wander 'cos we know our goal lies[00:02:04]

'Round the distant bend[00:02:07]

We take pride in our possessions[00:02:17]

Which are mostly old and few[00:02:19]

And we plan while we are workin'[00:02:23]

How we'll start our life anew[00:02:25]

But plans and cheques are slaughtered[00:02:30]

When we hit the nearest pub[00:02:32]

Then it's back out bush to work and plan[00:02:36]

And rough it in the scrub[00:02:39]

Oh we are ringers fencers shearers[00:02:42]

We are drovers on the track[00:02:45]

We are miners and road builders op'ning up the great outback[00:02:49]

Hard drinkers and hard workers and we give but never lend[00:02:56]

And we wander 'cos we know our goal[00:03:02]

Lies 'round the distant bend[00:03:05]

Yes we wander 'cos we know our goal[00:03:08]

Lies 'round the distant bend[00:03:11]
