Slim Dusty & Anne Kirkpatrick drovin

Select language to translate this lyric

Too many sheep, too many cattle,
my joints all ache and my old bones rattle.
45 years living in the sattle, drovin' all over this land.
Over mountains we roam through,
creeks we paddle, a shirt full of dirt, a mouth full of gravel.
I don't like the hours but I don't mind
the travel, drovin' all over this land.
And I've been drovin', I've been drovin' all over,
with a heeler called Rover; all over this land.
(—yodeling——-) Drovin', I've
been drovin' all over,
with a heeler called Rover; all over this land.
Drovin', and a ridin', and a roamin',
and a livin', you don't need a house or a bed full of stuffing.
20 foot of rope,
and a pocket full of nothin', drovin' all over this land.
Well the days get hot and the nights get
chillie; sit by the fire to boil up my billie.
It's good for your health,
but it sends you half silly, drovin' all over this land.
And I've been drovin', I've been drovin' all over,
with a heeler called Rover; all over this land.
(—-yodeling—————) Drovin' I've been drovin' all
over with a heeler called Rover; all over this land.
I know every waterhole and Outback
station; never broke a bone, nor had an operation.
Ya hardly see a sole,
it's a lonely occupation, drovin' all over this land.
In the dust, and the rain, and the wind,
and the weather, movin' ‘em ‘round, and keepin' It together.
Me and the stars,
we've been doing it forever, drovin' all over this land.
And I've been drovin', I've been drovin' all over,
with a heeler called Rover; all over this land. (——yodeling———-)
Drovin', I've been drovin' all over,
with a heeler called Rover; all over this land.
And I've been drovin',
I've been drovin' all over,
with a heeler called Rover; all over this land.
(————-yodeling————————-)
