《When The Rains Tumbles Down In July》歌词

[00:00:00] When The Rains Tumbles Down In July - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)/Sara Carter

[00:00:05] Let me wander north to the ho-omestead

[00:00:10] Way out further on there to roam

[00:00:15] By a gully in flood let me linger

[00:00:20] When the summery sunshine has flown

[00:00:25] Where the logs tangle up on the creek beds

[00:00:30] And clouds fill the old northern sky

[00:00:35] And the cattle move back from the lowlands

[00:00:40] When the rain tumbles down in July

[00:00:48] The settlers with sad hearts are watching

[00:00:52] The rise of the stream from the dawn

[00:00:57] Their best crops are always in flood reach

[00:01:02] If it rises much more they'll be gone

[00:01:08] The cattle string out along the fences

[00:01:12] The wind from the south races by

[00:01:17] And the limbs from the old gums are fallen

[00:01:22] When the rain tumbles down in July

[00:01:30] The sleeping gums on the hillside

[00:01:35] Awaken to herds strayin' by

[00:01:40] Here on the flats where the fences have vanished

[00:01:45] As the storm clouds gather on high

[00:01:50] The wheels of the wagons stop turning

[00:01:55] The stock horse is turned out to stray

[00:02:00] The old station dogs are a-dozin'

[00:02:05] On the husks in the barn through the day

[00:02:10] The drover draws rein by the river

[00:02:15] And it's years since he's seen it so high

[00:02:20] Yes and that's just a story of homeward

[00:02:25] When the rain tumbles down in July
