By A Fire Of Gidgee Coal (1998 Remaster) - Slim Dusty

Written by：Slim Dusty/Stan Coster

By a warm electric heater and a softly padded chair

In a loungeroom brightly lighted by a glowing chandelier

Since my early days of drovin'

The years have taken toll

But I somehow miss my swag wrap

By a fire of gidgee coal

When I wake from sleep each morning

And I ring the bedside bell

The maid brings in my breakfast

And she fills my pipe as well

There are cakes and sweetened coffee

On a tray of sparkling gold

But I miss black tea and damper

By a fire of gidgee coal

I am driven' out each evening

By a chauffer spruce and neat

Through the flowered parks and gardens and the crowded city streets

But I drift back through the ages

While the big car softly rolls

To a stock route and a wagonette

And a fire of gidgee coal

I attend all social parties

In the rich parts of the town

Drinking wine from fancy glasses as the waiters go their rounds

But I'd rather share a bottle with those drovin' mates of old

In a pair of dusty moleskins by a fire of gidgee coal

In a pair of dusty moleskins by a fire of gidgee coal
