《Georgina’s Son》歌词

[00:00:00] Georgina's Son - Slim Dusty

[00:00:06] Trucks and roadtrains taking over the drovers been pushed out

[00:00:10] The old track is seldom used anymore

[00:00:14] This song is dedicated to the drovers of yesterday and today

[00:00:19] And to the last of the great droving stock routes the Georgina

[00:00:24] Which begins at Lake Nash near Mt. Isa and ends near Bourke

[00:00:28] In western New South Wales

[00:00:33] I was born in the saddle

[00:00:36] Born into a life I'll never leave

[00:00:42] The life of the drover

[00:00:44] Will always be the only life for me

[00:00:49] Like my father before me

[00:00:52] I've ridden every stock route in the land

[00:00:57] From the Canning to the Birdsville Track

[00:01:00] I know 'em like the back of my hand

[00:01:04] They call me Georgina's Son

[00:01:08] The last one in a long proud family line

[00:01:13] I'm the Georgina's Son

[00:01:15] Comin' back to ride the old track one more time

[00:01:20] From Lake Nash to The Black Stump

[00:01:23] This run's for the sake of Auld Lang Syne

[00:01:28] 'Cause Georgina's Son

[00:01:30] Is comin' back to see the old girl one last time

[00:01:43] I have seen me some changes

[00:01:47] In fifty years and fifteen miles a day

[00:01:52] With droughts an' floods an' midnight rushes

[00:01:54] Trying to take my life along the way

[00:01:59] And I'm still in the saddle

[00:02:02] Still tryin' to settle down some restless mob

[00:02:07] Stirred up by the distant roar of diesel in the night

[00:02:12] Another duffer out to get my job

[00:02:17] They call me Georgina's Son

[00:02:20] The last one in a long proud family line

[00:02:25] I'm the Georgina's Son

[00:02:27] Comin' back to ride the old track one more time

[00:02:32] From Lake Nash to The Black Stump

[00:02:35] This run's for the sake of Auld Lang Syne

[00:02:40] 'Cause Georgina's Son

[00:02:43] Is comin' back to see the old girl one last time

[00:02:48] From Lake Nash to The Black Stump

[00:02:51] This run's for the sake of Auld Lang Syne

[00:02:56] Georgina's Son

[00:02:58] Is comin' back to see the old girl one last time
