A Pub With No Beer (Live From Australia/2000)

A Pub With No Beer (Live From Australia/2000) - Slim Dusty

Written by：Gordon Parsons

It's lonesome away

From your kindred and all

By the campfire at night

Where the wild dingoes call

But there's nothing so lonesome

So morbid or drear

Than to stand in a bar of a pub with

No beer

Now the publicans anxious for the quota to come

There's a faraway look on the face of the bum

The maids gone all cranky and the cooks acting queer

What a terrible place

Is a pub with no beer

Then the stockman comes in

Smather in dusty and trails

He trows down his trow

And rob to sweb rob his eyes

When his told

He says what says in ear

A tried afifty fall a demain

To a pub with no beae

Now

There's a dog on the v'randah

For his master he

Waits

But the boss is inside

Drinking wine with his mates

He hurries for cover

And cringes with fear

Its no place for a dog

Round a pub with

No beer

Old billy the blacksmithhis still tell it's very good

Old billy the blacksmith

He ride honmos on his house

But the cosfall him over

But he sover his coss

He bilows in the back

And I woss in tear

It's no place for a biundy oub

Round a pub with

No beer

Ohh

It's lonesome away

From your kindred and all

By the campfire at night

Where the wild dingoes call

But there's nothing so lonesome

Morbid or drear

Than to stand in a bar

Of a pub with

No beer
