West Of Winton (温顿西部) - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]

His eyes were used to distance and he talked much with his hands[00:00:17]

I guess he sort of felt hemmed in a stranger to this land[00:00:24]

And a lifestyle of another time another time and place[00:00:30]

Was written there deep in the lines of this old bushman's face[00:00:37]

His attire was still in keeping with the far out channel lands[00:00:44]

There was still a strength of character in his hard old bushman's hands[00:00:51]

And his old hat tilted forward was as much a part of him[00:00:58]

As the 80 years of living that showed underneath the brim[00:01:05]

Just somewhere west of winton mate is where I'd rather be[00:01:12]

To ride out in the dawn time mitchell to my horses knee[00:01:17]

Unroll my swag beside a fire of some long forgotten camp[00:01:24]

If I listen close maybe I'll hear a tethered night horse stamp[00:01:31]

Just to see again the sunsets as the night falls on the land[00:01:51]

Oh the silent sound of beauty makes the proudest heart expand[00:01:58]

Where the lights of some old homestead beam a warm and welcome glow[00:02:05]

And no travelling soul went hungry in those days of long ago[00:02:12]

I see a dried up sandy creekbed when the dry comes much too soon[00:02:18]

Watch the wild mob paw for water neath an early rising moon[00:02:25]

Maybe I'll see the dust cloud rising from the travelling mob again[00:02:31]

Hear the whips crack on the tailers as they cross the open plain[00:02:39]

Just somewhere west of winton mate is where I'd rather be[00:02:46]

To ride out in the dawn time Mitchell to my horses knee[00:02:51]

Unroll my swag beside a fire of some long forgotten camp[00:02:58]

If I listen close maybe I'll hear a tethered night horse stamp[00:03:04]
