Along the Road of Song - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]

'Neath the gumtrees by the roadway[00:00:05]

As the sun went down outback[00:00:07]

I lay at rest in peaceful reverie[00:00:10]

Then I thought of all the songs I'd sung[00:00:15]

About the outside track[00:00:19]

And that is how this vision came to me[00:00:21]

As I doze there in the shadows[00:00:26]

'Neath the gumtrees by the road[00:00:29]

I heard an angel singing there on high[00:00:32]

Just welcomed into heaven[00:00:37]

Was a soldier and his dog[00:00:40]

Nevermore would he and rusty say good bye[00:00:42]

Then along the road came farmer gray[00:00:48]

With his dancin' jersey cow[00:00:50]

But you'd never know this[00:00:53]

Famous pair have gone all highbrow now[00:00:54]

But their harvest days are over sad it is to say[00:00:58]

But they're making much more money[00:01:03]

Since the boogie came their way[00:01:06]

And the swaggie who liked good 'baccy[00:01:12]

Was smokin' a big cigar[00:01:15]

And braggin' about the fights he had in town[00:01:18]

Then the ghost of old king bundawaal[00:01:23]

With a wild old tribal yell[00:01:26]

Hit him on the head with a killer boomerang[00:01:28]

Frankie and Johnny next came by[00:01:34]

Fightin' the way they do[00:01:36]

She said Johnny man you've been making eyes[00:01:39]

At that little girl dressed in blue[00:01:41]

He said I know I've done yer wrong be'n doing[00:01:44]

So for years[00:01:47]

And the road I travel now[00:01:49]

Is down the lonesome[00:01:51]

Road of tears[00:01:52]

Then along came farmer[00:01:57]

Wilson dressed in a faded suit[00:01:58]

A lifebelt hanging round[00:02:02]

His neck and a flipper on his boot[00:02:04]

He said well things ain't b'en the same[00:02:07]

Since the distant days gone by[00:02:10]

When a certain character wrote a song[00:02:12]

About the wet month of July[00:02:15]

So I says to farmer Wilson do ya reckon I'm to blame[00:02:18]

His eyes went wild and his[00:02:24]

Whiskers sand his face[00:02:25]

Went red as flame[00:02:27]

Yes you're the bloke that wrote the song[00:02:29]

That's made my farm a sea[00:02:31]

And they're catchin' fish with spinners[00:02:34]

Now where my cow yard used to be[00:02:36]

'Neath the gumtrees by the roadway[00:02:40]

As the sun goes down outback[00:02:43]

I lay at rest in peaceful reverie[00:02:45]

Then I thought of all the songs I'd sung[00:02:50]

About the outside track[00:02:53]

And that is how this vision came to me[00:02:56]
