Changi Banjo (Bonus Track) - Lee Kernaghan[00:00:00]
Written by:James Griffin/Garth Porter/Lee Kernaghan[00:00:00]
Well the old man died in the summer[00:00:03]
When the grass was dry and brown[00:00:05]
The long hard road he'd travelled had finally reached the end[00:00:11]
He was out on the veranda writing letters to his daughters[00:00:19]
When he heard the curlew calling and he just put down his pen[00:00:25]
Well he did two years in Changi in the big Pacific War[00:00:34]
He'd been to hell and back again somehow came though it all[00:00:42]
His most prized possession was the banjo that he made[00:00:50]
As he built it all around him he watched his comrades fall[00:00:56]
He'd play the Changi bango made of tin[00:01:04]
The bridge piece was the Rising Sun from off his slouch hat brim[00:01:10]
Had a broomstick neck and nails to pick his strings[00:01:18]
To the memory of is fallen mates the Changi banjo rings[00:01:24]
When he came ashore in Sydney like a ghost of skin and bones[00:01:54]
No-one recognised the man behind the haunted face[00:02:02]
No-one knows the sorrows only he could tell[00:02:09]
Of how he's taking one last journey to rest with his old mates[00:02:15]
He'll play his Changi banjo made of tin[00:02:23]
The bridge piece was the Rising Sun from off his slouch hat brim[00:02:30]
Had a broomstick neck and nails to pick his strings[00:02:37]
To the memory of is fallen mates the Changi banjo rings[00:02:43]
He'll play his Changi banjo made of tin[00:02:51]
The bridge piece was the Rising Sun from off his slouch hat brim[00:02:57]
Had a broomstick neck and nails to pick his strings[00:03:05]
To the memory of is fallen mates the Changi banjo rings[00:03:11]
To the memory of is fallen mates the Changi banjo rings[00:03:19]
