Clayton Saunders - Slim Dusty Lyrics




I never got the chance to meet Slim Dusty
Oh but I sure love his songs
Stories that celebrate our native land
So many timeless sing-a-longs

Mr David Gordon Kirkpatrick
Wish you were still here
The King of Australian country music
Told us about The Pub With No Beer

Slim Dusty Slim Dusty
The boy who lived his dream
Slim Dusty Slim Dusty
His legacy reigns supreme

His travelling show kicked off back in 1954
Playing large tents and a hundred country halls
He sang about his mate Duncan and Lights on the hill
Waltzing Matilda his curtain call

He knew how to walk a country mile
A fair dinkum bush balladeer for hire
His image stands proud on two postage stamps
A member of the British Empire

Slim Dusty Slim Dusty
The boy who lived his dream
Slim Dusty Slim Dusty
His legacy reigns supreme

Joy Mckean his partner both in life and music
Beloved children David and Anne
Captured forever on the silver screen
The legend that is Slim Dusty the Man

(Spoken)
In 1983 when the space shuttle passed over Australia
Slim Dusty's version of Waltzing Matilda was beamed from space back to earth

Slim Dusty Slim Dusty
The boy who reached for the stars
Slim Dusty Slim Dusty
38 golden guitars
Slim Dusty Slim Dusty
Forever in our hearts
