《The Man From Snowy River(1996 Digital Remaster)》歌词

时长： 07:46

There was movement at the station, for the word had passed around that the colt from Old Regret had got away[00:07:46]

And had joined the wild bush horses, he was worth a thousand pounds, so all the cracks had gathered to the fray[00:07:46]

All the tried and noted riders from the stations near and far had mustered at the homestead overnight[00:07:46]

For the bushmen love hard riding where the wild bush horses are and the stock-horse snuffs the battle with delight[00:07:46]

There was Harrison, who made his pile when Pardon won the cup and the old man with his hair as white as snow[00:07:46]

But few could ride beside him when his blood was fairly up, he would go wherever horse or man could go[00:07:46]

And Clancy of the Overflow came down to lend a hand, no better horseman ever held the reins[00:07:46]

For never horse could throw him while the saddle-girths would stand and he learnt to ride while droving on the plains[00:07:46]

And one was there, a stripling on a small and weedy beast, he was something like a racehorse undersized[00:07:46]

With a touch of Timor pony, three parts thoroughbred at least and such as are by mountain horsemen prized[00:07:46]

He was hard and tough and wiry, just the sort that won't say die, there was courage in his quick impatient tread[00:07:46]

And he bore the badge of gameness in his bright and fiery eye and the proud and lofty carriage of his head[00:07:46]

But still so slight and weedy, one would doubt his power to stay and the old man said, that horse will never do[00:07:46]

For a long and tiring gallop lad, you'd better stop away, those hills are far too rough for such as you[00:07:46]

So he waited sad and wistful, only Clancy stood his friend, oh I think we ought to let him come, he said[00:07:46]

And I warrant he'll be with us when he's wanted at the end, for both his horse and he are mountain bred[00:07:46]

Oh he hails from Snowy River, up by Kosciusko's side, where the hills[00:07:46]
