《Old Riders In The Grandstand(1996 Digital Remaster)》歌词

[00:00:00] Old Riders In The Grandstand - Slim Dusty

[00:00:07] I'm seated in the grandstand at a big-time rodeo

[00:00:13] With my walking stick beside me as I watch the scene below

[00:00:18] There are youngon's ridin' outlaws as I did when young and free

[00:00:24] And I wonder are there many old ex-riders here like me

[00:00:31] The horses they are ridin' couldn't buck to save their hide

[00:00:36] Oh I'd like to see these youngon's on the ones I used to ride

[00:00:41] I've used the likes of spinifex for a night horse on the run

[00:00:46] And brahma bulls like Wadgerra we rode them just for fun

[00:01:00] The saddles they are using are designed to hold you in

[00:01:05] And the halter shanks are silky so as not to hurt your skin

[00:01:11] We rode in flattened Poleans in the days of long ago

[00:01:16] And could have rolled a smoke aboard the likes of Curio

[00:01:23] The steers they use for doggin' are no bigger than a calf

[00:01:28] And the time they take to throw them make us old timers laugh

[00:01:34] We used to scrub big Mickey's twice the size in cattle yards

[00:01:39] Oh but that was many years ago way back when times were hard

[00:01:53] These youngon's dress so lairy in their fancy cowboy suits

[00:01:58] We used to ride in moleskins and a pair of Bluecha boots

[00:02:03] But all our glory's vanished we're forgotten men it seems

[00:02:08] Old riders in the grandstand alone with all our dreams
