Three Chain Road (Remastered 2017)

歌詞

Billy was a drover He lived out on the three chain road Fell in love with Mary and they married She made his shack a home He drove them off to Queensland And it hurt to have to leave her on her own But she promised she'd be waiting When he brought the cattle home There's a lonesome wind blowing down The three chain road tonight It's sending out a warning as she blows Billy don't go riding down The three chain road tonight The wind is crying Billy please don't go Billy came home early He wasn't due for many days Walked into the cabin and found his Mary In a strangers arms she lay In the blindness of his anger The fatal shots rang out from Billy's gun In that smoky silence he knew And he wept for what he'd done There's a lonesome wind blowing down The three chain road tonight It's sending out a warning as she blows Billy don't go riding down The three chain road tonight The wind is crying Billy please don't go Billy walked out slowly He knew what must be done Somewhere in the darkness a shot rang out Billy's time had come They say his spirit's out there You can feel it every time the cold wind blows It's warding off the strangers Who come by the three chain road There's a lonesome wind blowing down The three chain road tonight It's sending out a warning as she blows Billy don't go riding down The three chain road tonight There's a lonesome wind blowing down The three chain road tonight It's sending out a warning as she blows Billy don't go riding down The three chain road tonight The wind is crying Billy please don't go
