John Farnham - Tenterfield Saddler lyrics

The late George Wallno worked on High Street and lived on manners 52 years he sat on his verandah, made his saddles And if you had questions about sheep or flowers or doves You just asked the saddler, he lived without sin They're building a library for him Time is a traveller Tenterfield saddler Turn your head Right again jackaroo, think I see kangaroo up ahead The son of George Wallno went off and got married and had a war baby But something was wrong and it's easier to drink than go crazy And if there were questions about why the end was so sad Well George had no answers about why her son ever has need of a gun Time is a traveller Tenterfield saddler Turn your head Right again jackaroo, think I see kangaroo up ahead The grandson of George has been all around the world and lives no special place Changed his last name and he married a girl with an interesting face He'd almost forgotten them both because of the life that he leads There's nowhere for George and his library or the son with his gun to belong Except in this song Time is a traveller Tenterfield saddler Turn your head Right again jackaroo, think I see kangaroo up ahead Time is a meddler Tenterfield Saddler Make a bet Fly away co*katoo Down on the ground Emu up ahead Time is a tale teller Tenterfield Saddler Turn your head Right again jackaroo, think I see kangaroo up ahead Time is a tale teller Tenterfield Saddler Make a bet Fly away co*katoo Down on the ground Emu up ahead
