Ah, Forget It - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]

I recollect his joining[00:00:11]

I liked him from the first[00:00:14]

His smile was everlasting[00:00:16]

Unquenchable his thirst[00:00:19]

Oh I ventured once to ask him[00:00:21]

What made him take to booze[00:00:24]

He muttered ah forget it[00:00:26]

I drink because I choose[00:00:28]

It wasn't quite an answer[00:00:31]

He saw that I'd was hurt[00:00:34]

And hastened to repair things[00:00:36]

But ah forget it first[00:00:39]

I didn't mean to snub you[00:00:42]

Then shook me by the hand[00:00:45]

A woman but forget it[00:00:47]

I said[00:00:50]

I understand[00:00:50]

Then he shouted me a whiskey[00:00:52]

And paid for two or three[00:00:55]

And grumbled ah forget it[00:00:57]

When I said This one's on me[00:01:00]

His heart was like old Phar Laps[00:01:02]

As big and just as great[00:01:05]

And many a needy cobber[00:01:07]

A helping hand he gave[00:01:10]

When came the day for sailing[00:01:14]

To foreign parts unknown[00:01:16]

We all had friends to cheer us[00:01:19]

But he was there alone[00:01:21]

Until the grey haired lady[00:01:24]

A mothers eyes alight[00:01:26]

Said son I'll keep on praying[00:01:28]

For you both day and night[00:01:31]

With ah forget it mother[00:01:34]

Those things will be ok[00:01:36]

We stumbled up the gangplank[00:01:39]

And so we sailed away[00:01:41]

Well soon the old battalion[00:01:52]

Was fighting in the line[00:01:55]

And you know finer hero[00:01:57]

Than this old friend of mine[00:01:59]

One night out in the jungle[00:02:02]

When we had made a break[00:02:04]

I learned just why the digger[00:02:07]

Is the bravest thing God made[00:02:09]

Wounded in the shell hole[00:02:12]

And wallowing in mire[00:02:15]

The battle stormed around me[00:02:17]

With crackling rifle fire[00:02:19]

Machine guns loudly stuttered[00:02:23]

And swept the shell hole rim[00:02:25]

When someone dropped beside me[00:02:28]

Oh I knew that it was him[00:02:30]

And his cheery voice was saying[00:02:33]

Buck up[00:02:35]

This wars a cow[00:02:36]

But ah forget it cobber[00:02:38]

For I'll get ya back somehow[00:02:40]

Despite that mad infernal[00:02:43]

He safely brought me through[00:02:45]

But not before the other side[00:02:48]

Had badly got him too[00:02:50]

In choking words I thanked him[00:02:54]

Though dying he would gain[00:02:56]

He said ah gee forget it[00:02:59]

Ah you would have done the same[00:03:01]

His rugged face was greying[00:03:04]

I knew it was the end[00:03:06]

I better man than I am[00:03:09]

Had died to save his friend[00:03:11]

And when he comes to judgment[00:03:14]

Oh I know just what he'll say[00:03:16]

Dear God I am unfitted[00:03:19]

To tread the holy way[00:03:21]

I've gone my way unheeding[00:03:25]

Just lived a life of sin[00:03:27]

But God the Just will answer[00:03:30]

Forget it son come in[00:03:34]
