点击复制Big Frogs In Little Puddles (1994 Remaster) - Slim Dusty/Joy McKean
Big frogs in little puddles laying down the law
Tying bows in red tape
And don't know what they're
For
I thought our soldiers went to war
To keep Australia free
But big frogs in little puddles are choking you and
Me
Choking you and me
Old tom staggered to the office door
Of a north west frontier town
And he cried give me food and water
And I'll tell you all what I've found
Yes I've found a mountain made of iron ore
And thisll make the money flow
But the office Johnny said now steady on
We must do things correct you know
I just can't hand out town supplies
To everyone who asks
And you're not a resident of this here town
So
You're not my business task
Oh but heres a requisition form
And it's in triplicate if you please
Now steady old man why I believe he's passed out
Oh I wonder where that mountain could be
Oh big frogs in little puddles laying down the law
Tying bows in red tape
And don't know what they're for
I thought our soldiers went to war
To keep Australia free
But big frogs in little puddles are choking you and
Me
Choking you and me
Well I found old toms iron mountain
And the town grew big and fast
All the knobs felt quite important
Living down their humble past
And if some started asking questions
Well there was the good old pass the buck
And if little folk got in their way
Well
It was just their bad luck
In the mines a young lad was killed one day
So they sent the message home
And his mother came over a thousand miles
So hed not be buried alone
Someone broke it to her gently
That it might be
Rather rough
A coffin made of masonite
And the hearse just a dirty truck
Oh she cried a while and then she asked for
Flowers
But there were none to be had in the town
So they sent to the council office
To see if some could be found
But the clerk in charge said what can I do
Shell have to take it in good part
Oh I guess he was just too busy
To be bothered with a mothers heart
Oh nice frog
Oh big frogs in little puddles laying down the law
Too busy in their little worlds to know what hearts
Are for
Success and money they might have but they better not
Forget
Their puddles may dry up someday and they'll deserve the
Scorn they get
Deserve the scorn they get
