Slim Dusty - When The RainTumbles Down In July Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Let me wander north to the ho-omestead
  • Way out further on there to roam
  • By a gully in flood, let me linger
  • When the summery sunshine has flown
  • Where the logs tangle up on the creek beds
  • And clouds fill the old northern sky
  • And the cattle move back from the lowlands
  • When the rain tumbles down in July
  • The settlers with sad hearts are watching
  • The rise of the stream from the dawn
  • Their best crops are always in flood reach
  • If it rises much more they'll be gone
  • The cattle string out along the fences
  • The wind from the south races by
  • And the limbs from the old gums are fallen
  • When the rain tumbles down in July
  • The sleeping gums on the hillside
  • Awaken to herds strayin' by
  • Here on the flats where the fences have vanished
  • As the storm clouds gather on high
  • The wheels of the wagons stop turning
  • The stock horse is turned out to stray
  • The old station dogs are a-dozin'
  • On the husks in the barn through the day
  • The drover draws rein by the river
  • And it's years since he's seen it so high
  • Yes and that's just a story of homeward
  • When the rain tumbles down in July
