Like A Family To Me - Slim Dusty[00:00:00]

Written by：Ernie Constance[00:00:01]

Well the best is all behind you[00:00:02]

By the time you reach my age in years[00:00:05]

And the only luxuries you know[00:00:11]

Are a T bone steak and a round or two of beer[00:00:15]

And the roads you know are the distant tracks[00:00:20]

And the bulldust and[00:00:24]

The never ending spaces[00:00:25]

And the only family you know[00:00:30]

Is the smiling friendly outback peoples faces[00:00:33]

I've got no family of my own[00:00:39]

This old drivers always been[00:00:44]

A rolling stone[00:00:49]

But there's always someone waiting[00:00:52]

Waiting there beyond the saltbush sea[00:00:56]

No matter how long I've been gone[00:01:02]

They've always got the Billy on[00:01:05]

Waiting like a family for me[00:01:08]

There's always someone waiting[00:01:26]

On a lonely isolated cattle run[00:01:28]

Sitting on the stockyard rails[00:01:35]

To roll a smoke and watch the setting sun[00:01:38]

And we'll shake hands and we'll swap news[00:01:43]

Boil the Billy on the coals for tea[00:01:46]

By first light I'll be loaded up[00:01:52]

Sail again across the saltbush sea[00:01:55]

Tomorrow I'll be gone again[00:02:07]

Alone with my fully loaded train[00:02:10]

The farewells are behind me[00:02:16]

And it might be 12 months 'ere I call again[00:02:19]

But there's a bond that ties me[00:02:25]

To the people of beyond the saltbush sea[00:02:28]

It's the bond of the outback[00:02:34]

With makes them like a family to me[00:02:37]

I've got no family of my own[00:02:43]

This old drivers always been[00:02:48]

A rolling stone[00:02:52]

But there's always someone waiting[00:02:56]

Waiting there beyond the saltbush sea[00:02:59]

Oh no matter how long I've been gone[00:03:05]

They've always got the Billy on[00:03:08]

Waiting like a family for me[00:03:11]

Waiting like a family for me[00:03:17]
