Where Country Is - Various Artists (欧美群星)[00:00:00]

He sat by the door of the grand old Birdsville Pub [00:00:09]

His swag and gear guarded by a faithful heeler dog [00:00:16]

He wore a shirt that would blind ya and a rumpled ringer's hat [00:00:23]

This old man was country he left no doubt of that [00:00:31]

There was legend in the lines of his weather beaten face [00:00:37]

Those eyes had seen a lot of changes Aussie race [00:00:44]

The passing of the horseman the death of an ace [00:00:52]

Seems to me he's doubys that we've turned a better page [00:00:59]

He sat there hillbilly pickin' on a cracked and battered Gibson [00:01:05]

And the songs that he sang were all his [00:01:11]

Every song told a story and the more I'd listen [00:01:16]

The more I realized this is where country is [00:01:23]

Well he sang of mobs of cattle moving down the Birdsville track [00:01:35]

And the camels carting wool in the early days outback [00:01:42]

He sang of wild eyed scrubbers ridin' flat out in the night [00:01:49]

Tryin' to ring the mob 'cause lightning's quick to fright [00:01:55]

And he sang loudly and proudly of our pioneering ladies and[00:02:01]

I suspect that one such lass was his [00:02:07]

Home in this early frontier country was lonely dirt floor Humphrey [00:02:12]

No doubt about it this man knows where country is [00:02:19]

His songs told how they did it and I felt a sense of shame [00:02:30]

And I wondered if the battler would ever be again [00:02:37]

His pride for his country rang true in every song [00:02:44]

And I wondered if the chips were down I would be as strong [00:02:51]

He sat there hillbilly pickin' on a cracked and battered Gibson [00:02:57]

And the songs that he sang were all his [00:03:04]

Every song told a story and the more I'd listen [00:03:09]

The more I realized this is where country is [00:03:16]

It's mate we're so far from the city here [00:03:23]

Know what - that's where country is[00:03:28]
