歌曲歌詞
Real country people in their prime
Livin' in new south on queensland time
He's a stockman
Likes raisin' sheep
Likes raisin' children
Don't get much sleep
On the shady big verandah
With his hardworking wife
Three young sidekicks
It's a way of life
Some years they make it
Some years they don't
Sometimes the creek flows
Sometimes it won't
Sometimes he's mean
He's got a gun
When the ewes are lambing
He's got pigs on the run
Out in the lignum
On the water course
You could lose a pig dog
You could lose a horse
Think you oughta know the channel's coming through
Wipin' out the bushland and the kangaroo
Greedy men with water rights
To neutralise the land
When's it gonna stop
I just don't understand
With cotton in their ears
And dollars in their eyes
Their banker grins and our country dies
They love the bush
They grow the wool
They respect the land and it's beautiful
Blue bonnets
Leatherheads and red back wrens
Bower birds ring necks and water hens
Red wings and red tailed black cockatoos
Think of all the rainbows we could lose
Real country people in their prime
Livin' in new south on queensland time
He's a stockman likes raisin' sheep
Likes raisin' children
Don't get much sleep
On the shady big verandah
With his hard workin' wife
Three young side kicks
It's a way of life
