歌曲名 Diamantina Drover

歌手名 John Williamson

作曲：Hugh McDonald

The faces in the photograph have faded

And I can't believe he looks so much like me

For it's been ten years today

Since I left for Old Cork Station

Saying I won't be back till the drovin's done

For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina

And a drover finds it hard to change his mind

For the years have surely gone

Like the drays from Old Cork Station

And I won't be back till the drovin's done

Well it seems like the sun comes up each morning

Sets me up and takes it all away

For the dreaming by the light

Of the camp fire at night

Ends with the burning by the day

For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina

And a drover finds it hard to change his mind

For the years have surely gone

Like the drays from Old Cork Station

And I won't be back till the drovin's done

Sometimes I think I'll settle back in Sydney

But it's been so long it's hard to change my mind

For the cattle trail goes on and on

And the fences roll forever

And I won't be back till the drovin's done

For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina

And a drover finds it hard to change his mind

For the years have surely gone

Like the drays from Old Cork Station

And I won't be back till the drovin's done

For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina

And a drover finds it hard to change his mind

For the years have surely gone

Like the drays from Old Cork Station

And I won't be back till the drovin's done
