Текст песни Never Was At All (Slim Dusty) с переводом

They say I’m getting older and my hair is turnin' grey

They say I should be slowing down, give it all away

Living like a gypsy doesn’t bother me at all

And I’d sooner be a 'has been' than a 'never was at all'

Now, I could’ve been a shearer and I could’ve been a vet

Could’ve been a lot of things, of this much you can bet

A man can sit there hangin' like a picture on the wall

But I’d sooner be a 'has been' than a 'never was at all'

Oh, Id sooner be 'has been' than a 'never was at all'

All my life I had a go, really had a ball

If you don’t climb the ladder, mate, then you can never fall

And I’d sooner be a 'has been' than a 'never was at all'

When I look at that old suitcase and I think of how it was

The bad times and the good times, hey, and we did it just because

I know I had to try it and today I’m standing tall

Cause I’d sooner be a 'has been' than a 'never was at all'

Now, you won’t reach the finish line if you don’t ever start

You’ll never live and you’ll never love if you don’t have a heart

So don’t just sit there whinging mate, it’s no damn good at all

And I’d sooner be a 'has been' than a 'never was at all'

Oh, Id sooner be 'has been' than a 'never was at all'

Give it everything I’d got, really had a ball

If you don’t climb the ladder, mate, then you can never fall

And I’d sooner be a 'has been' than a 'never was at all'

And I’d sooner be a 'has been' than a 'never was at all'

Oh laydee oh, laydee Oh, laydee
