Old Time Country Halls (1996 - Remaster) - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]
As I pick up my guitar to sing another song[00:00:11]
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[00:00:25]
I talk like this when I reminisce with an old time country hall[00:00:28]
I joined a tent show as a kid with a dream and an old guitar[00:00:34]
The Silvers All-Star Cavalcade and Dandy was the star[00:00:39]
He taught me lots about the game today I understand[00:00:45]
He was a great magician Dandy was a fine old man[00:00:50]
I'm a howlin' cattlehand 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 that's right[00:01:03]
I've been on the road for thirty years but Dandy could double that[00:01:18]
And you'll find his faded poster still in some hall way out back[00:01:23]
I like to go back stage and dream sometimes and just recall[00:01:29]
The shows I've had the good and bad shared with these country halls[00:01:34]
Take the old Town Hall Kalgoorlie with it's old time charm and grace[00:01:40]
And your mounting million complexes never will replace[00:01:45]
All glass and steal and concrete some large and some too small[00:01:51]
So let me sing where the rafters ring in an old time country hall hey[00:01:56]
We showed last night in the school of arts and the town was real rundown[00:02:13]
You'll find so many towns like that today as you move around[00:02:18]
Yeah the wind of change is blowin' up such an economic low[00:02:24]
The old time shows we used to know will soon be off the road[00:02:29]
I'm a howlin' cattlehand crooner[00:02:35]
I'm an old time dinosaur[00:02:37]
Hey let me sing where the rafters ring[00:02:40]
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]
