Текст песни From The Gulf To Adelaide - 1996 Digital Remaster - Slim Dusty
No
doubt
you've
heard
of
droving
trips
across
the
Murringai,
And
how
they
brought
the
bullocks
down
in
the
good
old
days
gone
bye,
But
the
greatest
droving
episode
that
any
man
has
made,
Was
30,
000
crocodiles
from
the
Gulf
to
Adelaide.
Oh
I
never
saw
the
likes
of
them
that
mob
of
crocodiles,
Thirty
footers
every
one
strung
out
for
thirty
miles
Three
days
it
took
to
start
'em
off,
three
days
to
straighten
em'
up,
Three
days
we
travelled
southward,
three
days
to
block
'em
up.
They
were
long
and
mean
and
cranky,
they
had
teeth
like
cross
cut
saws,
When
passin'
though
some
timber,
just
to
exercise
their
jaws,
They
churned
out
hardwood
posts
one
foot
through
by
seven
tall,
All
stacked
up
by
the
stock
route,
barked
an'
sapped
an'
all.
Oh
they
had
a
normal
appetite
as
lizards
really
should,
And
everything
in
hair
or
hide
was
considered
very
good,
The
first
day
out
from
Normanton
we
missed
the
jackaroo,
But
then,
blow
me
down,
the
horses
went,
an'
the
old
blue
heeler
too.
And
the
last
we
saw
of
Goanna
Bob,
horse
tailer
of
repute,
He
was
headin'
toward
the
rabbit
proof
with
a
big
croc
in
pursuit,
When
drifting
down
the
Flinders,
they
cracked
on
a
bit
of
pace,
Oh
they
took
a
mob
of
bullocks
and
never
left
a
trace.
Oh
I've
been
up
and
down
these
stock
routes
now
for
20
years
or
more,
But
I've
never
seen
a
travellin'
mob
the
likes
of
this
before,
By
Saltbush
plains
and
Gidgee
rise
down
'long
the
old
Georgina,
The
snapped
an'
snarled
and
pawed
all
day,
they
were
slowly
gettin'
meaner.
They
didn't
like
the
spinifex
a
ticklin'
their
ol'
hides
And
with
water
gettin'
far
apart,
the
tears
came
to
their
eyes,
Now
you've
heard
of
crocodile
tears
but
you
wouldn't
know
the
meanin',
Oh
with
30,
000
sheddin'
tears,
Oh
seein'
is
believin'.
There
was
water
in
the
gullies,
there
was
water
in
the
creeks,
And
the
old
Georgina
River
runnin'
belly
deep
for
weeks,
For
it
was
our
great
salvation
for
upon
that
flood
of
tears,
We
sailed
'em
down
past
Lake
Eyre
on
the
biggest
flood
for
years.
A
short
step
then
to
Adelaide,
and
delivery
right
on
time,
The
agent
came
to
meet
us,
and
here's
the
ending
of
this
rhyme,
For
he
said
you'll
have
to
turn
em'
around
and
take
them
back
again,
For
the
fashion
now
in
ladies
shoes
is
imitation
crocodile
with
the
courser
grain.
Spoken
Wouldn't
it
rip
you.
