Not Without You Old Mate is an Australian country bush ballad song by Terry Bennetts with Keith Lethbridge
~~ LYRICS ~~
I’ve travelled this land from the east to the west,
From the plains to the mountains high,
Down in the gullies where wallabies rest
And out where the brolgas fly.
I’ve dined in style at the finest pub
That ever unfurled a flag,
But I’m not well suited to fancy grub
And sleep just as well in a swag.
There’s a little bush river that runs to the sea,
And they tell me the yabbies taste great,
By a blazing log fire with a billy of tea,
But not without you, old mate.
Remember those years when we worked on the road
And the gravel was hotter than Hell?
Then when I felt crook, you shovelled my load.
Oh yes, I remember it well.
From station to station, from wool-shed to town,
With many a yarn and a song,
But when there was only one job to be found,
Then we just kept moving along.
There’s a little bush river that runs to the sea,
And they tell me the yabbies taste great,
By a blazing log fire with a billy of tea,
But not without you, old mate.
When money flowed easy, we squandered the lot,
And forgot about taxes and rates.
We didn’t keep records of who paid for what;
That’s never a problem, with mates.
Remember that time we fell foul of the law,
When sour-belly whiskey was sold
It cost us six days and it could have been more,
But at least we kept out of the cold.
There’s a little bush river that runs to the sea,
And they tell me the yabbies taste great,
By a blazing log fire with a billy of tea,
But not without you, old mate.
The wages were low and the yakka was hard,
And youth has a reckless pride.
I remember that brawl in the mustering yard?
It was good to have you at my side.
And now that we’re older, I’m timing my run
To that beautiful pearly gate.
I’ll call to Saint Peter: “Don’t hurry me son,
I’m waiting for my old mate!”
There’s a little bush river that runs to the sea,
And they tell me the yabbies taste great,
By a blazing log fire with a billy of tea,
But not without you, old mate,
There’s a little bush river that runs to the sea,
And they tell me the yabbies taste great,
By a blazing log fire with a billy of tea,
But not without you, old mate,
No, not without you, old mate.
