[00:00:00] The Birdsville Track (1992 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)

[00:00:04] Way out in heartbreak corner

[00:00:07] In Australia's far outback

[00:00:11] The desert broods it's secrets

[00:00:14] Along the birdsville track

[00:00:18] A family came and perished oh what a tragic end

[00:00:25] That fierce relentless desert

[00:00:27] Has claimed so many men

[00:00:31] I've learned how thirst can craze the mind

[00:00:34] In cruel heat outback

[00:00:38] And I grieve for that poor family

[00:00:41] Along the birdsville track

[00:00:45] The great white ball of fire

[00:00:47] Rode o'er the cloudless dome

[00:00:51] And scorched all living creatures

[00:00:54] Upon the sand and stone

[00:00:58] Way out in heartbreak corner

[00:01:01] They went and ne'er came back

[00:01:03] And another story's buried there

[00:01:06] Along the birdsville track

[00:01:18] Then twilight fell with calmness as silent as a tomb

[00:01:25] And phantom streams reflected the rising of the moon

[00:01:32] The days and nights that followed brought panic and despair

[00:01:38] And blinding sandstorms raged as though to drown a mother's prayer

[00:01:45] Then demons of the desert came to claim their tortured minds

[00:01:51] And searching bushmen came too late and read the tragic signs

[00:01:58] And now beside a coolabah where desert grasses wave

[00:02:04] The brumby stallion leads his mob to skirt the new made graves

[00:02:11] Way out in heartbreak corner they went and ne'er came back

[00:02:16] May twilight bring them peace at night

[00:02:19] Along the birdsville track

[00:02:31] The dingoes howl so dismally the lonely curlews cry

[00:02:37] As though in deepest mourning

[00:02:40] The those poor souls who died

[00:02:44] Way out in heartbreak corner

[00:02:46] In Australia's far outback

[00:02:50] The desert broods it's secrets

[00:02:53] Along the birdsville track

[00:02:57] Oh the desert broods it's secrets

[00:03:00] Along the birdsville track
