[00:00:00] Joe Palmer's Ghost (1996 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty

[00:00:00] Composed by：Slim Dusty/Ernie Constance

[00:00:02] Joe Palmer was a duffer in the nineties

[00:00:06] He was hanged away Roma way

[00:00:10] But they say his ghost still comes back cattle duffin'

[00:00:14] On the anniversary of his hangin' day

[00:00:19] For often he been sighted drovin' cattle

[00:00:22] Through the timber on that same long winter's night

[00:00:27] He always rides upon a snow white stallion

[00:00:30] And always wears a suit of milky white

[00:00:43] Oh many is the ringer's blood that's curdled

[00:00:47] And many is the hair turned white with fright

[00:00:51] To see Joe Palmer and his ghost white stallion

[00:00:56] Appear from out of no-where in the night

[00:01:00] His tracks disappears far down a valley

[00:01:04] The same one where poor Joe Palmer died

[00:01:08] But no-one never ventures down that valley

[00:01:12] An' they say there's no way out the other side

[00:01:24] But I know the secret of that valley

[00:01:28] The same secret old Joe Palmer knew

[00:01:32] There's a cave run through the far wall of the valley

[00:01:36] Where old Joe pushed the stolen cattle through

[00:01:41] Now I steal stock from the western runs in Queensland

[00:01:45] And sell'em through the sale yards on the coast

[00:01:49] And no one's ever even tried to catch me

[00:01:53] For they blame it all on poor Joe Palmer's ghost

[00:02:05] Now sometimes on a night camp out in Queensland

[00:02:09] When someone tells the yarn of Palmer's ghost

[00:02:14] I fancy someone's laughing close beside me

[00:02:17] And I know it must be old Joe Palmer's ghost

[00:02:22] Now I steal stock from the western runs in Queensland

[00:02:26] And sell'em through the sale yards on the coast

[00:02:29] And no one's ever even tried to catch me

[00:02:34] For they blame it all on poor Joe Palmer's ghost

[00:02:38] For they blame it all on poor Joe Palmer's ghost
