A Girl From The Land

 

A Girl From The Land

(album: G'day, G'day! - 1988)


Down at the local on Friday nights
My neighbour Dave wanders in
Sheepishly looking for company
'Cause his misses has bounced him again
He drinks with the boys from his single days
And life takes on a much brighter tone
And Dave can't believe, when it's time to leave
That his wife comes to take him back home

She's the Mrs of a farmer
The better half of a man
Working the land as a family
Raising the kids in Gippsland
She's been the wife, through trouble and strife
Ever ready to lean a hand
The backbone of the farmer
A girl from the land

Dave's wife is Sue, and she's local too
For they've been in the district for years
They work side by side, it's been no easy ride
But they've made it with love, sweat and tears
Their kids are all grown with homes of their own
So each Friday Sue gets in Dave's ear
It seems like a fluke, but I'm telling you
It's just so he can have a few beers

Yes the Mrs of a farmer
Is the better half of a man
Working the land as a family
Raising the kids in Gippsland
She's been the wife, through trouble and strife
Ever ready to lean a hand
The backbone of the farmer
A girl from the land

Instrumental
And meanwhile at home, Sue's been on the phone
Her girl friends will be dropping in
An' they laugh as they can about Susie's old man
As he thinks he's in trouble again
The womenfolk know their men like to go
For a beer with the boys now and then
And the girls think it's fine having tea cake and wine
Till it's time to collect them again

Yes the Mrs of a farmer
Is the better half of a man
Working the land as a family
Raising the kids in Gippsland
She's been the wife, through trouble and strife
Ever ready to lean a hand
The backbone of the farmer
A girl from the land
A girl from the land
