Country Livin' (Live) (1996 - Remaster) - Slim Dusty
There's an old fashioned country way of livin'
There's an old country way to greet a friend
I'm shakin' off the shackles of this bi-ig town
And I'm headin' for the country ways again
There's an old fashioned country way of singin'
Songs that are truthful and worthwhile
Songs of the life we live toge-ether
Oh I mean to say we call it country style
There's an old fashioned country way of playin'
Without the pomp and style of any star
It's what we call a good old get toge-ether
Stringin' with a pick 'n strum guitar - oh yeah
Oh you can't beat a good old country barn dance
They come for miles up and down the line
And if they feel like dancin' until day-aylight
Oh well no-one seems to care about the time
Oh there's mateship in a good old country bar room
For everyone knows everybody else
And as you laugh and listen to the mingled stor-ories
And maybe throw a few around yourself
So you ask me city friend why I am leavin'
To share again the droughts and floods and strife
You ask me why I'm singin' country mu-usic
Well country music friend is a way of life
There's an old fashioned country way of livin'
There's an old country way to greet a friend
I'm shakin' off the shackles of this bi-ig town
Ah headin' for the country ways again
Ah headin' for the country ways again
