prettiest girl in the kimberley - john williamson lyrics

Loading...

where is the glory when war is won
a man hits the bottle and belts his son
so i ran away to the cattle run
where i learned to fight and swallow rum
and i learned to go barefoot you see
just like an aborigine
for one of their tribe belonged to me
the prettiest girl in the kimberley

oooh . . .

but i could not marry the girl i adore
black and white was against the law
they chain you up to a boab tree
for kissing an aborigine

but a ringer’s heart is immune to pain
a bull rips your leg and you carry on
you clench your teeth and you cry alone
and ride for a week till the poison’s gone

oooh . . .

but me and my dog we’re not alone
the pension provides us with beef and a bone
i’ve given up drifting and drinking rum
we’re up and about before the sun

and i can still quarter a beast in a dash
have your freezer full of spare ribs in a flash
and i still dream of the one for me
the prettiest girl in the kimberley

oooh . . .

yes i still dream of the one for me
the prettiest girl in the kimberley
