Вступление
[Intro]
G G7 C
[Verse 1]
C
I was raised on a farm where our lives were calm
F C
In a land of honey and cream
C
As a boy I played in the summer time shade
D7 G7
By the banks of the old Nulla streams
[Verse 2]
C
Many years have gone since I left that home,
F C
Gum juice still runs in my veins,
C
I'm just an old Australian cattle camp crooner,
G C
Why should I ever change,
G C
Why should I ever change.
G G7 C
[Verse 3]
C
They say my dad was a bit of a lad,
F C
They called him Noisy Dan
He worked in the bush far from the push
D7 G7
Of the hustle of a noisy town.
[Verse 4]
C
He could rattle off tales in the stockyard rails,
F C
Of the wild old life he's had,
C
I'm just an old Australian cattle camp crooner,
G C
Following me dear old dad,
C
Following me dear old dad.
[Verse 5]
C
Now I've got mates in every state,
F C
I've been all over this land,
C
When it's cold I hit the road
D7 G7
And head for Darwin or Cairns.
[Verse 6]
C
Some fogies say for livin' this way,
F C
I must be out of my mind,
C
I'm just all Australian cattle camp crooner
G C
One of the wandering kind,
G C
One of the wandering kind.
[Verse 7]
C
Don't mind a smoke or a drink with the blokes,
F C
When day is over and done
C
I'm proud to be in this land of the free,
D7 G7
And to live my life in the sun
[Verse 8]
C
I don't wear chaps or a curled up hat
F C
My clothes are simple and plain,
I'm just an all Australian cattle camp crooner,
G C
Why should I ever change,
G C
Why should I ever change.
[Verse 9]
C
Now I've reached the state that nears old age,
F C
I soak up everyone's praise
C
I brag to the young of the things I've done,
D7 G7
Way back in the batting days.
[Verse 10]
C
And when I leave this place for the chosen race,
F C
And head for the heavenly range,
They'll say, "Here comes that cattle camp crooner",
G C
Why can't he ever change, (Oh no no)
G C
Why should I ever change,
G C
Why should I ever change
G C
Why should I ever change,
G C
Why should I ever change.
