From The Gulf To Adelaide (1996 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)

No doubt you've heard of droning trips across the murrain

And how they brought the

Bullocks down in the good old days gone bye

But the greatest droning episode that any man has made

Was 30 000 crocodiles from the gulf to Adelaide

Oh I never saw the likes of them that mob of crocodiles

Thirty footers every one strung out for thirty miles

Three days it took to start'em off three days to straighten em up

Three days we travelled southward three days to block'em up

They were long and mean and

Cranky they had teeth like cross cut saws

When passing though some timber just to exercise their jaws

They churned out hardwood posts one foot through by seven tall

All stacked up by the stock route barked an' sapped an' all

Oh they had a normal appetite as lizards really should

And everything in hair or hide was considered very good

The first day out from normanton we missed the jackaroo

But then blow me down the

Horses went an' the old blue healer too

And the last we saw of gonna bob horse tailor of repute

He was heading toward the rabbit proof with a big croc in pursuit

When drifting down the Flanders they cracked on a bit of pace

Oh they took a mob of bullocks and never left a trace

Oh I've been up and down these

Stock routes now for 20 years or more

But I've never seen a travelling mob the likes of this before

By salt bush plains and gidgee rise downlow the old Georgina

The snapped an' snarled and

Pawed all day they were slowly getting meaner

They didn't like the spinifex a tickling their ol hides

And with water getting far apart the tears came to their eyes

Now you've heard of crocodile

Tears but you wouldn't know the meaning

Oh with 30 000 shedding tears oh seeing is believing

There was water in the gullies there was water in the creeks

And the old Georgina river running belly deep for weeks

For it was our great salvation for upon that flood of tears

We sailed'em down past lake Eyre on the biggest flood for years

A short step then to Adelaide and delivery right on time

The agent came to meet us and

Here's the ending of this rhyme

For he said you'll have to turn em

Around and take them back again

For the fashion now in ladies shoes is

Imitation crocodile with the courser grain
