《The Farming Game》歌词

[00:00:00] The Farming Game - John Williams

[00:00:00] Winter time dad came home

[00:00:04] Dirty diesel and rust

[00:00:08] Pearly whites like diamonds

[00:00:11] Smiling through the dust

[00:00:15] Yummy mutton and pumking

[00:00:18] For a hungry gutted crew

[00:00:22] We knew mum loved us all to death

[00:00:25] And we all loved her too

[00:00:30] Well I couldn't wait to walk in my old man's shoes

[00:00:34] And what more could I ask

[00:00:38] To head off with my biscuit tin

[00:00:41] Black tea in a thermos flask

[00:00:45] To learn to plough a real straight line

[00:00:48] And learn to be alone

[00:00:52] In ever diminishing circles

[00:00:55] Solve problems on my own

[00:01:02] Now it's considered normal

[00:01:06] To pass your acres down

[00:01:09] But if you've got more children

[00:01:12] Well you try to buy more ground

[00:01:16] So you borrow heaps of money

[00:01:19] Just to give your kids a go

[00:01:23] After all that's said and done

[00:01:29] You taught them all you know

[00:01:54] After all that's said and done

[00:02:00] You taught them all you know

[00:02:03] Now there were days we nearly sold

[00:02:06] With frost and then a drought

[00:02:10] Easier ways to make a quid

[00:02:13] Would sort the young ones out

[00:02:17] They say it builds your character

[00:02:20] Good women and good men

[00:02:24] Who turn around when the crop has failed

[00:02:27] And sow it all again

[00:02:31] So hold on tight you cockies

[00:02:34] I know the feeling well

[00:02:38] If you couldn't save the family farm

[00:02:41] Then you'd rather go to hell

[00:02:44] No one will share your burden

[00:02:48] No one will share the blame

[00:02:51] And my heart goes out to the families

[00:02:55] Of the farming game

[00:03:05] Yes my heart goes out to the families

[00:03:09] Of the farming game
