Текст песни Born With An Endless Thirst (Slim Dusty) с переводом

Old Jimmy he liked whiskey, for whippin' the old TB

Hank Williams lived by the bottle, right to the end by gee!

I too might die from alcohol but I won’t be the first

County Music singers are just born with an endless thirst

There’s one more name I’ll mention, his name is Mr Hall

He loves his beer and bourbon, oh I’d say he’s tried 'em all

And some I’m afraid have gone onto the other stuff that’s worse

I’ll do no harm if I bend my arm to ease my endless thirst

So many of our brothers, in early life did lose

We’re either way up in the clouds or down deep in the blues

It’s a way life we’re born to, so for better or for worse

Country music singers are just born with an endless thirst

When I left my home away up north many long years ago

Our songs were played at 4 am and country radio

Oh they called us hicks and hillbillies and sometimes even worse

Twas enough to drive a man to drink, excuse my endless thirst

So from cowboy songs to country songs it’s been a long hard grind

We were looked upon with such disdain back in the good old times

And as old G. P and few like me couldn’t give tinkers curse

We’ve done it all our way anyway, lived with our endless thirst

So many of our brothers, in early life did lose

We’re either way up in the clouds or down deep in the blues

It’s a way life we’re born to, so for better or for worse

Country music singers are just born with an endless thirst

Those smart bandwagon hoppers wouldn’t spit on the country scene

When we were in the doldrums, now they’re bursting at the seams

Oh they prance around like peacocks in city clubs and halls

But fancy boots and hats don’t make a fine star after all

So I’ll just stick to my old bush songs, the ones that I enjoy

Oh you’ll understand my stories I’m not makin' too much noise

And if I should die from alcohol then I won’t be the first

'Cause country music singers are born with an endless thirst

So many of our brothers, in early life did lose

We’re either way up in the clouds or down deep in the blues

It’s a way life we’re born to, so for better or for worse

Country music singers are just born with an endless thirst, hey

Country music singers are just born with an endless thirst

Born with an endless thirst, hey
