Answer To The Pub With No Beer - Slim Dusty[00:00:00]

Written by：Slim Dusty/Whittaker[00:00:02]

Where the hills roll away[00:00:05]

From a small country town[00:00:07]

There are hearts filled with sorrow[00:00:10]

As the word spread around[00:00:12]

And the jackass won't laugh[00:00:15]

Cause there's no jokes to hear[00:00:17]

So let me tell you[00:00:20]

The reason for the pub with no beer[00:00:21]

Broken down on the track[00:00:29]

Cos he stripped out the gear[00:00:31]

There's the old grey blitz wagon[00:00:33]

The one with the beer[00:00:36]

And the driver's near mad[00:00:38]

Standing scratching his ear[00:00:41]

He knows just what they're thinking[00:00:43]

At the pub with no beer[00:00:46]

When the drover rides out[00:00:50]

And draws straight by the truck[00:00:52]

He joins in with the driver[00:00:55]

And curses their luck[00:00:57]

Where's billy the blacksmith[00:01:00]

We could do with him here[00:01:02]

But Bill's moved on to grafton[00:01:04]

Where the brewery stands near[00:01:07]

So the drover rides back[00:01:13]

With a brilliant idea[00:01:15]

He rides hard in the saddle[00:01:18]

Till the town's drawing near[00:01:20]

He dismounts in the lane[00:01:23]

And the dog cringes near[00:01:25]

And the swaggie's[00:01:28]

Just leaving the pub with no beer[00:01:29]

There's exitement all round[00:01:34]

As the drover tells where[00:01:37]

The old blitzen bus is[00:01:39]

On the plain way out there[00:01:42]

Every man that can ride[00:01:44]

Says the drover to all[00:01:46]

Saddle up let's get moving[00:01:49]

And bring back the haul[00:01:52]

When the boys rode back in[00:01:58]

What a strange sight they made[00:02:00]

They charged into the pound[00:02:03]

Like the old light brigade[00:02:05]

With tow ropes and tackle[00:02:08]

They all pulled as one[00:02:10]

And the old blitz moved faster[00:02:13]

Than she ever had done[00:02:15]

Soon the kegs were rolled in[00:02:19]

One was placed on the bar[00:02:21]

It filled all the glasses[00:02:24]

Every jug and each jar[00:02:26]

Then the word passed around[00:02:29]

And they all gave a cheer[00:02:31]

And there was laughter once more[00:02:34]

In the pub with no beer[00:02:36]
