Lyrics Paddy William - Slim Dusty
Said
he
was
born
on
Marble
Bar,
been
a
drover
all
his
life
With
his
old
dark
skin,
a
wrinkled
grin,
grandchildren
and
a
wife
He
drove
cattle
through
to
Camel
Wheel
and
up
the
Isa
too
And
his
old
eyes
shone
of
the
days
long
gone
and
the
mates,
he
knew
Well
I
met
him
there,
in
Turkey
Creek
as
he
sat
in
a
four-wheel
drive
I
was
glad
to
find
his
mind
was
sharp
and
the
memories
still
alive
Of
the
droving
days
and
the
stockyard
camp
when
he
rode
at
the
boss'
side
Well
he'd
been
a
ringer
all
his
life
on
the
western
side
Oh
Paddy
William
is
his
name
And
droving
was
his
game
But
a
thousand
miles
on
the
outback
trails
is
a
long,
long
way
from
home
Oh
Paddy
William
is
his
name
And
droving
was
his
game
But
a
thousand
miles
on
the
outback
trails
is
a
long,
long
way,
from
home
Well
he
looked
so
old
and
weary
as
he
proudly
spoke
his
name
His
old
eyes
shone
like
beacons
when
he
talked
of
the
droving
game
He
said
he
was
born
on
Marble
Bar,
been
a
drover
all
his
life
With
his
old
dark
skin,
a
wrinkled
grin,
said
he
loved
the
life
And
I
guess
he's
still
in
Turkey
Creek,
near
the
hills
of
Misty
Blue
And
I
hope
his
dreams
of
the
Cattle
Run,
all
come
true
And
I
hope
he
finds
a
horse
so
fine
to
carry
him
away
And
on
the
droving
run,
he'll
be
number
one
Like
the
good
old
days
Oh
Paddy
William
is
his
name
And
droving
was
his
game
But
a
thousand
miles
on
the
outback
trails
is
a
long,
long
way
from
home
Oh
Paddy
William
is
his
name
And
droving
was
his
game
But
a
thousand
miles
on
the
outback
trails
is
a
long,
long
way,
from
home
So
if
your
driving
through
the
Kimberleys
or
around
the
Isa
way,
You
might
see
him
slowly
riding
with
a
big
mob
on
the
graze
He'll
be
tall
and
straight
don't
hesitate,
just
call
out
his
name
Just
say
g'day
there
Paddy
William,
how's
the
droving
game?
Oh
Paddy
William
is
his
name
And
droving
was
his
game
But
a
thousand
miles
on
the
outback
trails
is
a
long,
long
way
from
home
Oh
Paddy
William
is
his
name
And
droving
was
his
game
But
a
thousand
miles
on
the
outback
trails
is
a
long,
long
way
from
home
