《Scots of the Riverina》歌词

[00:00:00] Scots Of The Riverina - John Schumann and The Vagabond Crew
[00:00:01] Written by:Traditional
[00:00:12] The boy cleared out to the city from his home at harvest time
[00:00:18] They were Scots of the Riverina and to run from home was a crime
[00:00:24] The old man burned his letters the first and last he burned
[00:00:30] And he scratched his name from the Bible when the old wife's back was turned
[00:00:39] A year went past and another There were calls from the firingline
[00:00:45] They heard the boy had enlisted but the old man made no sign
[00:00:51] His name must never be mentioned on the farm by Gundagai
[00:00:58] They were Scots of the Riverina with ever the kirk hard by
[00:01:06] The boy came home on his final and the township's bonfire burned
[00:01:12] His mother's arms were about him but the old man's back was turned
[00:01:18] The daughters begged for pardon till the old man raised his hand
[00:01:25] A Scot of the Riverina who was hard to understand
[00:02:03] The boy was killed in Flanders where the best and bravest die
[00:02:08] There were tears at the Grahame homestead and grief in Gundagai
[00:02:14] But the old man ploughed at daybreak and the old man ploughed till the mirk
[00:02:19] There were furrows of pain in the orchard while his housefolk went to the kirk
[00:02:30] The hurricane lamp in the rafters dimly and dimly burned
[00:02:37] And the old man died at the table when the old wife's back was turned
[00:02:43] Face down on his bare arms folded he sank with his wild grey hair
[00:02:51] Outspread o'er the open Bible and a name rewritten there
