lirik lagu slim dusty – things i see around me
i sing about the things i see around me
the beauty of australia that surrounds me
i sing you songs about this sunburnt land
specially for the ones who understand
i sing about the people that i know
and a song about the places where i go
when i sing about the beauty that astounds me
oh i’m just singing ’bout the things i see around me.
i sing about a ringer they call trumby
how a man from snowy river wheeled the brumby
i sing of towns a thousand miles from here
and the poor old pub that ran right out of beer.
i sing about the folk who battle drought,
in that hard dry country further out;
when i sing about their courage that astounds me
oh i’m just singing ’bout the things i see around me.
[instrumental]
i sing about the old retired drover
and the transport men whose trucking days are over.
i sing about folk of the golden mile
and the people who are living anthill style
oh, i sing about the hardships and the strife
the battling men must suffer in this life.
when i tell you all the stories that astound you,
i’m just singing ’bout the things i see around me.
i sing about the things i see around me
the beauty of australia that surrounds me
i sing you songs about this sunburnt land.
specially for the ones who understand.
i sing about the people that i know,
and a song about the places where i go,
when i sing about the beauty that astounds me,
oh i’m just singing ’bout the things i see around me.
oh i’m singing ’bout the things i see around me.
