A Word To Texas Jack (1995 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]
Written by:Slim Dusty/Henry Lawson[00:00:02]
Texas jack you are amusin' great lord harry how I[00:00:04]
Laughed[00:00:08]
When I seen your rig and saddle with it's bulwarks[00:00:08]
Fore and aft[00:00:12]
Holy smoke from such a saddle how the dickens can[00:00:13]
Ya fall[00:00:17]
Why I've seen a gal ride bareback with no bridle[00:00:17]
On at all[00:00:21]
How I'd like to see a bushman use yer fixins[00:00:23]
Texas jack[00:00:26]
On the remnant of a saddle he can ride to[00:00:28]
Hell and back[00:00:31]
Why I've heard a mother cheerin' when her kid went[00:00:32]
Tossin' by[00:00:35]
Ridin' bareback on a bucker that had murder in his[00:00:36]
Eye[00:00:40]
You may talk about your ridin' in the city bold[00:00:44]
An' free[00:00:48]
Talk o' ridin' in the city texas jack but where'd[00:00:49]
You'd be[00:00:52]
When the stock horse snorts an' bunches all 'is quarters[00:00:53]
In a hump[00:00:56]
And the saddle climbs a sapling an' the horse shoes[00:00:58]
Split a stump[00:01:01]
No before you teach the natives you must ride without[00:01:03]
A fall[00:01:07]
Up a gum or down a gully nigh as steep[00:01:08]
As any wall[00:01:11]
You must swim the roarin' darling when the flood is[00:01:12]
At it's height[00:01:15]
Bearin' down the stock an' stations to the great australian[00:01:16]
Bight[00:01:20]
You can't count the bulls an' bisons that you copped[00:01:23]
With your lassoo[00:01:26]
But a stout old my all bullock perhaps could learn you[00:01:28]
Somethin' new[00:01:31]
You had better make your will an' leave your papers[00:01:32]
Neat an' trim[00:01:35]
Before you make arrangements for the lassooin' of him[00:01:37]
And you say you're death on injuns we've got somethin'[00:01:42]
In your line[00:01:45]
If you think your fightin's equal to the likes of[00:01:47]
Tommy ryan[00:01:50]
Take your carcass up to queensland where the alligators chew[00:01:51]
And the carpet snake is handy with his tail for[00:01:55]
A lassoo[00:01:59]
Ride across the hazy regins where the lonely emus wail[00:02:02]
An' ye'll find the dark'll track yer while yer lookin'[00:02:07]
For his trail[00:02:10]
He can track yer without stoppin' for a thousand miles[00:02:11]
Or more[00:02:15]
Come again and he will show you where you spat[00:02:16]
The year before[00:02:19]
But you'd best be mighty careful you'll be sorry you[00:02:22]
Came here[00:02:26]
When you're skewered to the fragments of your saddle with[00:02:27]
A spear[00:02:30]
When the boomerang is sailin' in the air then heaven[00:02:31]
Help ya[00:02:35]
It will cut yer head off goin' an' come back[00:02:36]
Again and scalp ya[00:02:39]
Texas jack you are amusin' great lord harry how I[00:02:42]
Laughed[00:02:46]
When I seen your rig and saddle with it's bulwarks[00:02:46]
Fore an' aft[00:02:50]
Holy smoke from such a saddle how the dickens can[00:02:51]
Ya fall[00:02:55]
Why I've seen a gal ride bareback with no bridle[00:02:55]
On at all[00:02:59]
