| I’ll catch the tramline in the morning
|
| With your leave Van Bushell said
|
| He had further heard the cock crow
|
| As he stumbled out the shed
|
| Then blind Joseph came towards him
|
| With a shotgun in his arms
|
| He said you’ll pay me twenty dollars
|
| Before you leave my farm
|
| Van Bushell saw the hook
|
| Which replaced Joseph’s hand
|
| He said now calm you down my brother
|
| Let’s discuss this man to man
|
| It’s no good you getting angry
|
| We must try to act our age
|
| You’re pursuing your convictions
|
| Like some hermit in a cage
|
| You’re the son of your father
|
| Try a little bit harder
|
| Do for me as he would do for you
|
| With blood and water bricks and mortar
|
| He built for you a home
|
| You’re the son of your father
|
| So treat me as your own
|
| Well slowly Joseph well he lowered the rifle
|
| And he emptied out the shells
|
| Van Bushell he came towards him
|
| He shook his arm and wished him well
|
| He said now hey blind man that is fine
|
| But I sure can’t waste my time
|
| So move aside and let me go my way
|
| I’ve got a train to ride
|
| Well Joseph turned around
|
| His grin was now a frown
|
| He said let me just refresh your mind
|
| Your manners boy seem hard to find
|
| You’re the son of your father
|
| Try a little bit harder
|
| Do for me as he would do for you
|
| With blood and water bricks and mortar
|
| He built for you a home
|
| You’re the son of your father
|
| So treat me as your own
|
| You’re the son of your father
|
| So treat me as your own
|
| You’re the son of your father
|
| So treat me as your own |
