Things I See Around Me - Slim Dusty[00:00:00]
Written by:Slim Dusty/Ernie Constance[00:00:01]
I sing about the things I see around me[00:00:06]
The beauty of Australia that surrounds me[00:00:10]
I sing you songs about this sunburnt land[00:00:15]
Specially for the ones who understand[00:00:19]
I sing about the people that I know[00:00:23]
And a song about the places where I go[00:00:27]
When I sing about beauty that astounds me[00:00:31]
Oh I'm just singing 'bout things I see around me[00:00:35]
I sing about a ringer they call Trumby[00:00:40]
How a man from Snowy River wheeled the brumby[00:00:44]
I sing of towns a thousand miles from here[00:00:48]
And the poor old pub that ran right out of beer[00:00:52]
I sing about the folk who battle drought[00:00:56]
In that hard dry country further out[00:01:00]
When I sing about their courage that astounds me[00:01:04]
Oh I'm just singing 'bout oh I see around me yeah[00:01:08]
I sing about the old retired drover[00:01:18]
And the transport men whose trucking days are over[00:01:21]
I sing about folk of the golden mile[00:01:25]
And the people who are living anthill style[00:01:29]
I sing about the hardships and the strife[00:01:33]
The battling men must suffer in this life[00:01:37]
When I tell you all the stories that astound you[00:01:41]
I'm just talking 'bout hope you see around you[00:01:45]
I sing about things I see around me[00:01:50]
The beauty of Australia that surrounds me[00:01:54]
I sing you songs about this sunburnt land[00:01:58]
Specially for the ones who understand[00:02:03]
I sing about the people that I know[00:02:06]
And a song about the places where I go[00:02:10]
When I sing about the beauty that astounds me[00:02:14]
Oh I'm just singing 'bout things I see around me[00:02:18]
Oh I'm just singing 'bout things I see around me yeah[00:02:22]
