The Man From Never Never - Slim Dusty

My legs are kind of bowed from horses that I’ve rode

Through the salt bush and the sand

I’ve got that rock’n’rollin' beat from this rollin' saddle seat

Because I live in the never never land

I cooee out a song my pony jogs along

And he just seems to understand

I was born for the open life free from worries of a wife

Away out in the never never land

From drovin' on the track i’m nearly sunburnt black

And when the duststorms blow the sand

My language then is worse, unquenchable my thirst

From Livin' in the never never land

I’ve never travelled down to all your high class towns

Because I’m right just where I am

Our town’s a pub and general store, what’s the use of any more

Away out in the never never land.

I love the fun that goes with all the rodeos

When everyones out to show their brand

And if you’re thrown from a steer well there’s not a thing to fear

The boys will always dig you from the sand

I go for sweet romance at the rodeo dance

As we’re swingin' to the ragtime band

And when the boys are full of brew there might be a fight or two

Still we’re cobbers in the never never land

My legs are kind of bowed from horses that I’ve rode

Through the salt bush and the sand,

I’ve got that rock’n’rollin' beat from this rollin' saddle seat

Because I live in the never never, live in the never never

live in the never never land
