A Mate Who Can Do No Wrong - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)

Written by：Slim Dusty/Henry Lawson

We learnt the creed at Hungerford

We learnt the creed at Bourke

We learnt it in the good times

And we learnt it out of work

We learnt it by the harbour side

And by the billabong

No matter what a mate may do

A mate can do no wrong wrong wrong

He's like a king in this respect

No matter what they do

And king like shares in storm and shine

The throne of life with you

We learnt it when we were in jail

And put it in a song

No matter what a mate may do

A mate can do no wrong wrong wrong

Ah pick it out man

They'll say he said a bitter word

When he's away or dead

But we're loyal to his memory

No matter what he said

And we should never hesitate

But strike out good and strong

And jolt the slanderer on the jaw

A mate can do no wrong wrong wrong

He's like a king in this respect

No matter what they do

And king like shares in storm and shine

The throne of life with you

We learnt it when we were in jail

And put it in a song

No matter what a mate may do

A mate can do no wrong wrong wrong

No matter what a mate may do

A mate can do no wrong wrong wrong

No matter what a mate may do

A mate can do no wrong wrong wrong
