Lyrics:
Real country people in their prime, Livin' in New South on Queensland time He's a stockman, likes raisin' sheep, Likes raisin' children, don't get much sleep On the shady big verandah, with his hardworking wife, Three young sidekicks, It's a way of life. Some years they make it, some years they don't Sometimes the creek flows, sometimes it won't Sometimes he's mean, he's got a gun When the ewes are lambing he's got pigs on the run Out in the lignum, on the water course You could lose a pig dog, you could lose a horse. Think you oughta know the channel's coming through Wipin' out the bushland and the kangaroo Greedy men with water rights to neutralise the land When's it gonna stop I just don't understand. With cotton in their ears and dollars in their eyes Their banker grins and our country dies. They love the bush, they grow the wool They respect the land and it's beautiful Blue Bonnets, Leatherheads and Red-Back Wrens Bower Birds, Ring Necks and Water Hens Red Wings and Red Tailed Black Cockatoos Think of all the rainbows we could lose Real country people in their prime Livin' in New South on Queensland time He's a stockman likes raisin' sheep, Likes raisin' children, don't get much sleep On the shady big verandah with his hard workin' wife Three young side kicks, It's a way of life.
