lirik lagu dead kelly – down by the creek
the melaleuca’s sway back and forth
as he trudges through the scrub
sweat drains through his beard, hot sun boils his blood
pains of hunger setting in, he must find a place to rest
find himself some dinner, another f~cking test
peeling back the banksia to see a bank wet and damp
a second win, a cheeky grin, a perfect place to camp
all set up, who comes bouncing by?
a big red b~st~rd, twinkle in his eye
a shakey hand scoops up rifle leaning by the tree
rests the rifle on a dead log as slowly as can be
“sorry mate, i gotta to eat”
what a meal that night
down by thе creek
thoughts flow freely under the southern cross
dеmons teach a bloke who’s boss
far away, blood of many on his hands
while the creek cools down his cans
last tin crushed, fire all but coals
it’s time to turn in
out here no~one judges any man
for a life of sin
there’s peaceful dreams to seek
the cicadas echo through the night
down by the creek
at first light with dusty eyes he sees an unfamiliar sight
an eight foot salty carving through the creek
like a sharpened knife
then a sound more familiar, in seconds to arrive
a cloud of dust, a siren flash, a copper’s four wheel drive
desperate scramble for his gun, time not on his side
nine millimetres drawn
“oi, ya c~nt. you’re coming for a ride”
with a desperate deadly stare
which meets both coppers in the eyes
“f~ck you ya f~cken pigs…”
you’ll never take me alive!
you’ll never take me alive!
you’ll never take me alive!
to the boys in blue amazement, he turns his back on them
it’s not a f~cken option locked up in a pen
takes off his shirt off, wades into the water
the eight foot salty savours the slaughter
with a last deep breath for courage
he feels the mud with moving feet
the coppers hear him whisper softly
“it’s ok mate, you gotta eat”
now at rest there’s always plenty peaceful dreams to seek
the kookaburras didn’t laugh that morning
down by the creek
