《It’s a Way of Life》歌词

[00:00:00] It's A Way Of Life - John Williams

[00:00:16] Real country people in their prime

[00:00:20] Livin' in new south on queensland time

[00:00:24] He's a stockman

[00:00:25] Likes raisin' sheep

[00:00:28] Likes raisin' children

[00:00:29] Don't get much sleep

[00:00:31] On the shady big verandah

[00:00:33] With his hardworking wife

[00:00:36] Three young sidekicks

[00:00:37] It's a way of life

[00:00:47] Some years they make it

[00:00:49] Some years they don't

[00:00:51] Sometimes the creek flows

[00:00:53] Sometimes it won't

[00:00:55] Sometimes he's mean

[00:00:57] He's got a gun

[00:00:58] When the ewes are lambing

[00:01:00] He's got pigs on the run

[00:01:03] Out in the lignum

[00:01:05] On the water course

[00:01:07] You could lose a pig dog

[00:01:09] You could lose a horse

[00:01:26] Think you oughta know the channel's coming through

[00:01:30] Wipin' out the bushland and the kangaroo

[00:01:34] Greedy men with water rights

[00:01:36] To neutralise the land

[00:01:38] When's it gonna stop

[00:01:39] I just don't understand

[00:01:41] With cotton in their ears

[00:01:43] And dollars in their eyes

[00:01:45] Their banker grins and our country dies

[00:02:20] They love the bush

[00:02:22] They grow the wool

[00:02:24] They respect the land and it's beautiful

[00:02:28] Blue bonnets

[00:02:29] Leatherheads and red back wrens

[00:02:32] Bower birds ring necks and water hens

[00:02:36] Red wings and red tailed black cockatoos

[00:02:40] Think of all the rainbows we could lose

[00:02:52] Real country people in their prime

[00:02:56] Livin' in new south on queensland time

[00:02:59] He's a stockman likes raisin' sheep

[00:03:03] Likes raisin' children

[00:03:05] Don't get much sleep

[00:03:06] On the shady big verandah

[00:03:08] With his hard workin' wife

[00:03:11] Three young side kicks

[00:03:12] It's a way of life
