lirik lagu reg poole - slim dusty, you're australia
[chorus]
slim dusty, you’re australia, and you’re aussie to the core
you’ve had it rough and you’ve had it tough, but you’ve always known the score
with your travellin’ country band, you knew what you had to do
you sang all day with your “hey, hey, hey” and you made us proud of you
[verse 1]
you started off at nulla creek with your dad’s old violin
you wrote your rhymes and you struck hard times, but you met them with a grin
you kept on tryin’ kempsey first when you were just a lad
then you headed down to old sydney town with your music and your dad
[verse 2]
but, as you know, the city’s grim when you try to be a hit
they take your dough and they all say no and they set you back a bit
but country lads can take a knock and still get up again
with the rain in july and the fire in your eyes and the blood from your irish strain
[chorus]
slim dusty, you’re australia, and you’re aussie to the core
you’ve had it rough and you’ve had it tough, but you’ve always known the score
with your travellin’ country band, you knew what you had to do
you sang all day with your “hey, hey, hey” and you made us proud of you
[verse 3]
you travelled through our cities and through the wide brown land
you came along and put to song what we all understand
the heartbreak tale of trumby and mad jack’s c~ckatoo
and and inside look at the drover’s cook and the old bush barbeque
[verse 4]
so, now, slim, you’re successful, you’re a legend in our time
the knockers come, and they say, “that bum, he cannot sing or rhyme”
but let them go, they wouldn’t know a blowfly on the nose
so sing a song and we’ll sing along till it’s time for the pub to close
[chorus]
slim dusty, you’re australia, and you’re aussie to the core
you’ve had it rough and you’ve had it tough, but you’ve always known the score
with your travellin’ country band, you knew what you had to do
so sing and play through the livelong day, you’re australia through and through
[outro]
yes, sing and play through the livelong day, you’re australia through and through
