Callaghan's Hotel(1996 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty

作曲:Slim Dusty/Henry Lawson

There's the same old coaching stable

That's been used by Cobb and Co

And the yard the coaches stood in

More than sixty years ago

And the public private parlour

Where they serve the passing swell

Was the shoeing forge and smithy

Of the Callaghan's Hotel

There's the same old walls and

Woodwork that our fathers built to last

And the same old doors and wainscot

And the windows of the past

And the same old nooks and corners

Where the Jim Jams used to dwell

But the phantoms dance no longer

Up at Callaghan's Hotel

There are memories of the old days

That were red instead of blue

In the time of Dick the Devil

And those other devils too

But perhaps they went to heaven

And are angels doing well

They were always open hearted up

At Callaghan's Hotel

Then the new chum broken hearted

And with boots all broken too

Got another pair of bluchers and

A quid to see him through

And the old chum got a bottle

Who was down and suffering hell

And no tucker bag went empty

Out of Callaghan's Hotel

And I sit and think in sorrow of

The nights that I have seen

When we fought with chairs and

Bottles for the orange and the green

For the pride of dear old Ireland

Till they rang the breakfast bell

And the honour of Old England up

At Callaghan's Hotel

There's the same old coaching stable

That's been used by Cobb and Co

And the yard the coaches stood in

More than sixty years ago

And the public private parlour where

They serve the passing swell

Was the shoeing forge and smithy

Of the Callaghan's Hotel
