Three Hundred Horses - Slim Dusty

Three hundred horses patiently stand

Three hundred horses wearing Cummins brand

Harnessed up in the dawns early glow

Three hundred horses are rearing to go

Three hundred horses all sleek and grand

Three hundred horses are in my command

Theyre right for water;

theyre all well shod

Just waitin for the foreman to give me the nod

Oh the load is heavy, the load is high

The tarps are on for keeping it dry

There’s over a hundred bales of wool

And three hundred horses awaitin to pull

Three hundred horses patiently stand

Three hundred horses wearing Cummins brand

Harnessed up in the dawns early glow

Three hundred horses are rearing to go

Eastward the sun is raisin his head

I’ve been up early and been well fed

The controls are in my two firm fists

Three hundred horses are champing their bits

I’m out on the road out where I belong

My mind is at ease, in my heart is a song

For a week long trip I’ve got all I need

And three hundred horses gathering speed

Through the land of the free, the land that I love

The land with the southern cross up above

Through the land of the sun and the wide open spaces

Three hundred horses shoulder the traces

Hey three hundred horses patiently stand

Three hundred horses wearing Cummins brand

From the tropical north to the southern snow

Three hundred horses just see me go

Yeah three hundred horses patiently stand

Three hundred horses wearing Cummins brand

Harnessed up in the dawns early glow

Three hundred horses rearing to go

Three hundred horses patiently stand

Three hundred horses wearing Cummins brand

Harnessed up in the dawns early glow

Three hundred horses rearing to go
