John Williamson piosenki

A city girl is happy with her friends and family life Appreciates a wine with him at night She tries to find the sparkle, she searches but it's gone With lots of love she hopes he'll be alright Her man has gone all quiet he's not at ease He doesn't feel a...

Will you ever stop singing Chad, old mate Do you think you might retire Lie right back in grandpa's chair In front of the open fire When you reach the 70's, Chad I thought that might be it You're just like a young bloke Champing at the bit I'll never...

Don't knock the old hillbillies People love 'em out in the bush A simple tune with words that you can hear Y' don't need complications where hearts are kind and true Just words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear Maybe you need to stroll down a littl...

It was before the dollar And before the Pill I went to this rock dance - in Swan Hill I arrived in me E.K - hair slicked back And I saw his sheila in tangerine socks, hair pitch black And she walked right by me. . . And she said. . . CHORUS: "You wanna...

When m' travellin' days are done Will you still be with me? When all the songs have been sung Standin' right beside me Watchin' the grandkids grow I've got everything but nothing without you I've got mountains, I've got rivers I've got a chandelier of...

Tell me old Bill Sullivan when you were a lad Did you hear of murderin' ways You speak a little Aranda and Walpiri But you'd rather speak of drovin' days Can you remember, not so long ago Aborigines weren't allowed to come to town But Pioneer Picture Ni...

Teary eyes at the window, Where did Mum and Dad go? I wish someone would hurry up and come and get me, Gee I'm scared The cat shot through, She saw the light and fled. Cracker night was a real big deal, when I was a little kid They started lettin' them o...

Sun goes down in the evening west Now you can see nature's best Red and gold in their full Now you can feel the evening cool Desert child lay down your head And listen to what's being said Stars are out in their majesty Out here everyone is free Dese...

I have seen a burning, never seen it higher If you haven't seen a firestorm You haven't seen a fire Saw 'em runnin' down the street, with no home to go Just the shoes on their feet, nothin' else to show I have seen hard times, as far I can tell But I ha...

To hear your voice, to see you smile To sit and talk to you awhile To be together the same old way That would be our greatest wish today To hear you laugh, to hear you cry Or just a chance to say 'goodbye' To say the things we didn't say That would be...

Just layin' with my lady on a houseboat in the sun Can't hear the city hummin', and I'm feelin' good With a belly full of oysters and some white wine on the ice, I've got that laid back lovin' feeling - it's really nice What I call Hawkesbury River lovin',...

Chorus I'm Fair Dinkum, bloody oath I am I've loved the smell of gum leaves, since I was in a pram Some places may be greener, but I don't give a damn 'Cause I'm Fair Dinkum, bloody oath I am. Now I was in the doctor's just the other day He told me take...

If you take me from my land You leave me with no soul, I am like a tree Everything I am is rooted in the soil Or I am just a stick to burn I see you my brother In your desert shining With your hand of gentle welcome You're looking for my sense of humou...

Well I've ripped and dug out burrows on a sandy bulloak hill, Eradicating rabbits doesn't take a lot of skill But a boy born in the Mallee doesn't find 'em hard to kill No self-respecting farmer lets a rodent eat his wheat He'll shoot 'em and he'll skin 'e...

Let me tell you of an interview with an Old Man Emu He's got a beak and feathers and things, but the poor old fella ain't got no wings "Aren't you jealous of the wedge-tail eagle?" - dom ba da little da da da (Spoken in tempo) "While the eagle's flying rou...

Where is the glory when war is won A man hits the bottle and belts his son So I ran away to the Cattle Run Where I learned to fight and swallow rum And I learned to go barefoot you see Just like an Aborigine For one of their tribe belonged to me The Pre...

There's a rose bush in the garden Been there since I was born That celebrates its age without fear I touch the velvet petals And smell the breath of angels And pick the purple roses every year Now you think you're passed your prime my sweet woman Your u...

Sippin' beer and thinking things The deepest thoughts that fire brings Is it all that I can do Or will this be the last time Snorin' truckies, windmill sings Lonely sounds of Renner Springs Round and round the road I go The everlasting travellin' show...

What am I gonna do - what about the future? Gotta draw the line without delay Why shouldn't I get emotional - the bush is sacred Ancient life will fade away Over the hill they go, killing another mountain Gotta fill the quota - can't go slow Huge machine...

Now's not the time for wailin' While there's water in the river We'll all lay down and cry when it's gone I'll be a jackass and laugh at every sunrise Celebrate the day when it's born And we'll cruise one more time down the river While our hearts overfl...
