A Pub With No Beer (Original Version) - Slim Dusty[00:00:02]
Oh it's-a lonesome away[00:00:05]
From your kindred and all[00:00:07]
By the campfire at night[00:00:10]
We'll hear the wild dingoes call[00:00:12]
But there's-a nothing so lonesome [00:00:16]
Morbid or drear[00:00:19]
Than to stand in the bar[00:00:21]
Of a pub with no beer[00:00:23]
Now the publican's anxious[00:00:27]
For the quota to come[00:00:29]
And there's a far away[00:00:32]
Look on the face of the bum[00:00:33]
The maid's gone all cranky[00:00:37]
And the cook's acting queer[00:00:39]
Oh what a terrible place[00:00:41]
Is a pub with no beer[00:00:44]
Then the stockman rides up[00:00:50]
With his dry dusty throat[00:00:52]
He breasts up to the bar[00:00:55]
And pulls a wad from his coat[00:00:57]
But the smile[00:01:00]
On his face quickly turns to a sneer[00:01:01]
As the barman says sadly[00:01:05]
The pub's got no beer[00:01:08]
Then the swaggie comes in smothered[00:01:11]
In dust and flies[00:01:15]
He throws down his roll[00:01:16]
And rubs the sweat from his eyes[00:01:19]
But when he is told he says what's this I hear[00:01:21]
I've trudged fifty flamin' miles[00:01:26]
To a pub with no beer[00:01:28]
Now there's a dog on the v'randa [00:01:34]
For his master he waits[00:01:37]
But the boss is inside drinking wine with his mates[00:01:39]
He hurries for cover and he cringes in fear[00:01:45]
It's no place[00:01:49]
For a dog 'round a pub with no beer[00:01:51]
And old Billy the blacksmith [00:01:55]
The first time in his life[00:01:58]
Why he's gone home cold sober[00:02:00]
To his darling wife[00:02:03]
He walks in the kitchen [00:02:06]
She says you're early Bill dear[00:02:08]
But then he breaks down[00:02:10]
And tells her the pub's got no beer[00:02:12]
So it's-a lonesome away from[00:02:16]
Your kindred and all[00:02:19]
By the campfire at night[00:02:21]
We'll hear the wild dingoes call[00:02:24]
But there's-a nothing so lonesome [00:02:27]
Morbid or drear[00:02:30]
Than to stand in the bar[00:02:32]
Of a pub with no beer[00:02:35]
