[00:00:00] The Man From Iron Bark - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)

[00:00:02] Written by：Slim Dusty/A.B. Banjo Paterson

[00:00:04] It was the man from iron bark who struck the Sydney

[00:00:07] Town

[00:00:08] He wandered over street and park he wandered up and

[00:00:12] Down

[00:00:12] He loitered here he loitered there till he was like

[00:00:16] To drop

[00:00:17] Until at last in sheer despair he sought a barber's

[00:00:20] Shop

[00:00:21] 'Ere shave my beard and whiskers off I'll be a

[00:00:23] Man of mark

[00:00:25] I'll go and do the Sydney toff up home in

[00:00:27] Iron bark

[00:00:32] The barber man was small and flash as barbers mostly

[00:00:35] Are

[00:00:36] He wore a strike your fancy sash he smoked a

[00:00:39] Huge cigar

[00:00:40] He was a humorist of note and keen at repartee

[00:00:44] He laid the odds and kept a 'tote' whatever that

[00:00:47] May be

[00:00:48] And when he saw our friend arrive he whispered here's

[00:00:51] A lark

[00:00:52] Just watch me catch him all alive this man from

[00:00:55] Iron bark

[00:01:05] There were some gilded youths that sat along the barber's

[00:01:09] Wall

[00:01:09] Their eyes were dull their heads were flat they had

[00:01:12] No brains at all

[00:01:14] To them the barber passed a wink his dexter eyelid

[00:01:17] Shut

[00:01:18] 'I'll make this bloomin' yokel think his bloomin' throat is

[00:01:21] Cut

[00:01:22] And as he soaped and rubbed it in he made

[00:01:24] A rude remark

[00:01:26] 'I s'pose the flats is pretty green up there in

[00:01:29] Iron bark

[00:01:33] A grunt was all reply he got he shaved the

[00:01:36] Bushman's chin

[00:01:37] Then made the water boiling hot and dipped the razor

[00:01:40] In

[00:01:41] He raised his hand his brow was black he paused

[00:01:44] Awhile to gloat

[00:01:45] Then slashed the red hot razor back across his victim's

[00:01:48] Throat

[00:01:49] Upon the newly shaven skin it made a livid mark

[00:01:53] No doubt it fairly took him in the man from

[00:01:56] Iron bark

[00:02:05] He fetched a wild up country yell might wake the

[00:02:07] Dead to hear

[00:02:09] And though his throat he knew full well was cut

[00:02:11] From ear to ear

[00:02:13] He struggled gamely to his feet and faced the murd'rous

[00:02:16] Foe

[00:02:17] 'You've done for me you dog I'm beat one hit

[00:02:19] Before I go

[00:02:21] I only wish I had a knife you blessed murdering

[00:02:24] Shark

[00:02:25] But you'll remember all your life the man from iron bark

[00:02:32] He lifted up his hairy paw with one tremendous clout

[00:02:36] He landed on the barber's jaw and knocked the barber

[00:02:39] Out

[00:02:40] He set to work with tooth and nail he made

[00:02:43] The place a wreck

[00:02:44] He grabbed the nearest gilded youth and tried to break

[00:02:47] His neck

[00:02:48] And all the while his throat he held to save

[00:02:51] His vital spark

[00:02:52] And murder bloody murder yelled the man from iron bark

[00:03:05] A peeler man who heard the din came in to

[00:03:08] See the show

[00:03:09] He tried to run the bushman in but he refused

[00:03:12] To go

[00:03:14] And when at last the barber spoke and said 'twas

[00:03:16] All in fun

[00:03:18] Twas just a little harmless joke a trifle overdone

[00:03:22] A joke he said by hell that's fine a

[00:03:24] Lively sort of lark

[00:03:26] I'd like to catch that murdering swine some night in

[00:03:28] Iron bark

[00:03:33] And now while round the shearing floor the list'ning shearers

[00:03:36] Gape

[00:03:37] He tells the story o'er and o'er and brags of

[00:03:40] His escape

[00:03:41] 'Them barber chaps what keeps a tote by hell I've

[00:03:44] Had enough

[00:03:45] One tried to cut my bloomin' throat but thank the

[00:03:48] Lord it's tough'

[00:03:49] And whether he's believed or no there's one thing to

[00:03:52] Remark

[00:03:53] That flowing beards are all the go back home in

[00:03:56] Iron bark

[00:03:59] That flowing beards are all the go back home in

[00:04:01] Iron bark
