《The Prettiest Girl in the Kimberley》歌词

[00:00:00] The Prettiest Girl in the Kimberley - John Williamson

[00:00:00] Where is the glory when war is won

[00:00:03] A man hits the bottle and belts his son

[00:00:07] So I ran away to the Cattle Run

[00:00:09] Where I learned to fight and swallow rum

[00:00:13] And I learned to go barefoot you see

[00:00:17] Just like an Aborigine

[00:00:21] For one of their tribe belonged to me

[00:00:25] The Prettiest Girl in the Kimberley

[00:00:30] Oooh

[00:00:46] But I could not marry the girl I adore

[00:00:50] Black and white was against the law

[00:00:54] They chain you up to a Boab Tree

[00:00:58] For kissing an Aborigine

[00:01:02] But a ringer's heart is immune to pain

[00:01:06] A bull rips your leg and you carry on

[00:01:10] You clench your teeth and you cry alone

[00:01:14] And ride for a week till the poison's gone

[00:01:19] Oooh

[00:01:35] But me and my dog we're not alone

[00:01:39] The Pension provides us with beef and a bone

[00:01:43] I've given up drifting and drinking rum

[00:01:47] We're up and about before the sun

[00:01:51] And I can still quarter a beast in a dash

[00:01:55] Have your freezer full of spare ribs in a flash

[00:02:00] And I still dream of the one for me

[00:02:04] The Prettiest Girl in the Kimberley

[00:02:08] Oooh

[00:02:25] Yes I still dream of the one for me

[00:02:46] The Prettiest Girl in the Kimberley
