So here we go right now.
Hey!
I think it's time to get the boat and wake the kids.
I've never seen that river running like it is.
I've never seen the rain come down like this before.
Hey, tie that bloody dog up by the kitchen door.
Because in an hour or two, believe you me,
we'll be high,
dry and homeless,
like the black cockatoo.
We should have gone yesterday,
another point of rain,
and we'll be swimming in our shoes, set on high,
dry and homeless.
Walk.
On.
Better get some blankets and photographs.
Well,
I'll pack up the sandwiches and thermos flasks.
Well,
the ads will make the room to take your teddy bear.
Oh, tie that silly dog, he's running everywhere.
Oh, what the hell, let's have a cup of tea.
Before we're high, dry and homeless,
like the black cockatoo.
We should have gone yesterday,
another point of rain,
and we'll be swimming in our shoes,
set on high,
dry and homeless.
Here we go.
Here we go.
High,
dry and homeless.
Another point of rain,
and we'll be swimming in our shoes,
set on high,
dry and homeless.
Hey, let's get high,
dry and homeless.
Let's swim out.
Thank you, Anne.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much, indeed.
Well,
I think the greatest progress we've had in Australian country music
has been about the last 10, 12, 15 years,
and that's due to all the young ones coming up,
singing it and playing it naturally.
Anyway, here's a brand new song we'd like to do,
written for me by one of the young up-and-coming country artists.
I think he must have read my book one time.
Anyway,
he wrote this one,
it's called I'm Still Here.
I'm Still Here to Give It My Best.
