《When the Rains Tumble Down in July》歌词

[00:00:00] When the Rains Tumble Down in July - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)

[00:00:04] Hey hey hey

[00:00:07] Hey hey hey

[00:00:10] Hey hey hey

[00:00:17] Let me wander north to the homestead

[00:00:23] Way out further on there to roam

[00:00:28] By a gully in flood let me linger

[00:00:34] When the summery sunshine has flown

[00:00:39] Where the logs tangle up on the creek beds

[00:00:45] And clouds fill the old northern sky

[00:00:50] And the cattle move back from the lowlands

[00:00:56] When the rain tumbles down in July

[00:01:09] The settlers with sad hearts are watching

[00:01:15] The rise of the stream from the dawn

[00:01:21] Their best crops are always in flood reach

[00:01:26] If it rises much more they'll be gone

[00:01:32] The cattle string out along the fences

[00:01:38] The wind from the south races by

[00:01:43] And the limbs from the old gums are fallen

[00:01:48] When the rain tumbles down in July

[00:01:58] The sleeping gums on the hillside

[00:02:04] Awaken to herds strayin' by

[00:02:10] Here on the flats where the fences have vanished

[00:02:15] As the storm clouds gather on high

[00:02:21] The wheels of the wagons stop turning

[00:02:27] The stock horse is turned out to stray

[00:02:32] The old station dogs are a-dozin'

[00:02:38] On the husks in the barn through the day

[00:02:44] The drover draws rein by the river

[00:02:49] And it's years since he's seen it so high

[00:02:54] And that's just a story of homeward

[00:03:00] When the rain tumbles down in July
