Abalinga Mail (Live From Australia/2000) - Slim Dusty

Written by：John Parkes

My name is Bluey Simpson well how yer goin' mate

I've been conductor on this train since 1928

I hope you're in no hurry sport sit down and

Settle back

They call the abalinga mail the snail of the outback

Oh the abalinga mail my oath she's slow

And I should be the one to know

It's no good you goin' crook I tell you son

'Cause if you're really in a hurry then you better

Get out an' run

We once took on 200 lambs only 8 weeks old

They were headed clear across the state to the place

Where they'd been sold

That trip was takin' so darn long I didn't think

We'd rear 'em

Ah we had to stop 3 flamin' times and take

'Em off and shear 'em

Oh the abalinga mail my oath she's slow

And I should be the one to know

It's no good you goin' crook I tell you son

'Cause if you're really in a hurry then you better

Get out an' run

Two newly weds come on one time in the early

Part of June

They were headed for the seaside for a happy honeymoon

Now I wouldn't say that trip was slow but I

Think it was no use

Well by the time we reached the coast their divorce

Had just come through

Oh the abalinga mail my oath she's slow

And I should be the one to know

It's no good you goin' crook I tell you son

'Cause if you're really in a hurry then you better

Get out an' run

We made the outback with some sit me papers like last

Year

And the people on the cattle stations gave a mighty

Cheer

They longed to read the latest news from the great

Big world outside

But they got an dreadful shock to learn that pharlap

He had died

Oh the abalinga mail my oath she's slow

And I should be the one to know

It's no good you goin' crook I tell you son

'Cause if you're really in a hurry then you better

Get out and run

And you're really in a hurry then you better get

Out an' run

Come to an' run
