《Mad Jack’s Cockatoo(2004 Remaster)》歌词

[00:00:00] Mad Jack's Cockatoo (1997 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty
[00:00:04] There's a man that went out, in the flood time and drought
[00:00:08] By the banks of the outer Barcoo,
[00:00:12] They called him "Mad Jack", 'cos the swag on his back,
[00:00:16] Was the perch for an old cockatoo.
[00:00:20] By towns near and far and shed, shanty and bar
[00:00:24] Came the arms of Mad Jack and his bird
[00:00:28] And this tale I relate, it was told by a mate
[00:00:31] Is just one of the many I've heard.
[00:00:36] Now Jack was a bloke who could drink, holy smoke!
[00:00:40] He could swig twenty pots to my ten,
[00:00:43] And that old cockatoo it could sink quite a few
[00:00:47] And it drank with the rest of the men.
[00:00:51] One day when the heat was a thing hard to beat,
[00:00:55] Mad Jack and his old cockatoo,
[00:00:59] Came in from the west to the old "Swagman's Rest"
[00:01:03] And they ordered schooners for two.
[00:01:07] When these had gone down he pulled out half a crown
[00:01:11] And they drank 'til their money was spent,
[00:01:15] Then he pulled out a note from his old tattered old coat,
[00:01:19] And between them they drank every cent.
[00:01:23] Then that old cockatoo it swore red, black and blue,
[00:01:27] And it knocked all the mugs off the bar,
[00:01:31] Then it flew through the air and it pulled at the hair
[00:01:34] Of a chap who was drinking "Three Star",
[00:01:38] And it jerked out the pegs from the barrels and kegs,
[00:01:42] Knocked the bottles all down from the shelf,
[00:01:46] With a sound like a cheer it dived into the beer
[00:01:50] And it finished up drowning itself.
[00:01:54] When poor Jack awoke not a word then was spoke,
[00:01:58] But he cried like a lost husband's wife,
[00:02:02] And each falling tear made a flood with the beer,
[00:02:05] And the men had to swim for their life,
[00:02:09] Now poor Jack was drowned and when finally found,
[00:02:13] He was lying there stiffened and blue,
[00:02:17] And it's told far and wide that stretched out by his side,
[00:02:21] Was his track mate ..... the old cockatoo.
