roger mcguinn - brisbane ladies كلمات الأغنية

[em] farewell and adieu to [g] you, brisbane [d] ladies
[em] farewell and adieu, you [g] maids of [d] toowong
[em] we’ve sold all our [d] cattle and we [c] have to
get a [em] movin’
[em] but we hope we shall [d] see you [c] again before
[em] long.

cho: we’ll rant and we’ll roar like true queensland
drovers
we’ll rant and we’ll roar as onward we push
until we return to the augath-lla station
oh, it’s flamin’ dry goin’ through the old queensland
bush.

the maids of toomancie they look so entrancing
like bawling young heifers they’re out for their fun
with the waltz and the polka and all kinds of dancing
to the rackety old banjo of henry gunn.

then on to nanango, that hard-bitten township
where the out-of-work station-hands sit in the dust,
where the shearers get sh-rn by old tim, the contractor
oh, i wouldn’t go near there, but i flaming well must!

then fill up your gl-sses, and drink to the l-sses,
we’ll drink this town dry, then farewell to them all
and when we’ve got back to the augath-lla station,
we hope you’ll come by there and pay us a call.

written by saul mendelsohn, printed as a broadside.
repr. queensland boomerang, 1891. in most australian
collections; cf. ‘spanish ladies’
