Australian Blues, (WW2 song) (Electric Blues)

G'day folks, lyrics are the key to this one more then the music style, life for folks back in WW2 done to a modern blues genre.. just having fun with technology enjoy or not ..lol....have a great day :-) :-) Left my boots by the back door Red dust on every seam War news on the wireless Cutting through my mother’s dreams She stirs a pot of watered soup Tickets in her apron fold Says Son This land runs lean But tough Stronger than the notes I owe Got them old Australian blues Empty pantry Sky so wide Writing letters to the front line Praying each one makes it back alive Slow train rolling through a hungry town But we keep singing in our worn-out shoes Yeah The world’s on fire across the sea And we got the Australian blues Old man Jack at the rail-yard One arm and a crooked grin Tells tales of digging desert roads Where the sun just chewed his skin Says They paid me in a promise Boy Beer and a Saturday dance You learn to live on half a loaf And take any kind of chance Got them old Australian blues Brown river Hard-earned pay Women working double shifts Men in uniforms far away Postman riding like a hanging cloud Every knock could tear a heart in two Yeah The radio hums a foreign song Over my Australian blues Met a girl by the picture house Lipstick from a secret tin Hair tied up with rationed cloth Laughter loud above the din She said “Let’s dance like it might be Our first night and our last” We turned a rough hall into heaven On a polished wooden path Years move on like cattle trains Cold steel Then they’re gone Fields grow back where feet once marched But the stories linger on Sometimes I taste that thin Weak stew In a kitchen dim and small Hear my mother hum a broken tune Through the rising of it all Still got the Australian blues Faded photo in my hands Sandbag shadows in my sleep Boot prints in the inland sand Yet this old heart keeps a steady beat For every name that duty used We built a quiet kind of courage here Out of our Australian blues
