Things I See Around Me |
I sing abaout the things I see around me |
The beauty of Australia that surrounds me |
I sing in songs about this sunburnt land |
Especially for the ones who understand |
I sing about the people that I know |
and a song about the places where I go |
When I sing about the beauty that astounds me |
Oh I just sing about the things I see around me |
I sing about a ringer they called Trumby |
How the man from Snowy River wheeled the brumby |
I sing of towns a thousand miles from here |
And the poor pub that ran right out of beer |
I sing about the folks that battled drought |
In that hard dry country further out |
When I sing about their courage that astounds me |
I just singing about the folk I see around me |
I sing about the old retired drover |
And the transport men whose trucking days are over |
I sing about the Golden Mile |
And the people who are living anthill style |
I sing about the hardships and the strife |
The battling man must suffer in this life |
When I tell you all their stories that astoune you |
I just talk about the folk you see around you |
I sing abaout the things I see around me |
The beauty of Australia that surrounds me |
I sing in songs about this sunburnt land |
Especially for the ones who understand |
I sing about the people that I know |
and a song about the places where I go |
When I sing about the beauty that astounds me |
Oh I just sing about the things I see around me |
