Slim Dusty Little Old One Horse Pub song lyrics

Oh the bar was pretty small, but we didn't mind at all

Mostly only locals hanging round

Many years I've been away, I wonder what it's like today

That little old one horse pub in my hometown.

Many nights we'd all ride in and the boys would have a fling

In the days before too many cars were 'round

I confess we jumped the gun, late closing had begun

At that little old one horse pub in my town.

Ah tell that story now

Jimmy Woodser came there too, but his mates were very few

He was so darn mean he used glow worms in the dark

He would always dodge his shout, and the story got about

That Jimmy wouldn't shout if he was bitten by a shark

I can see old Roy McBell, hear the stories he could tell

When he'd spin the yarns the boys would gather round

I was always in it too and I made my first debut

At that little old one horse pub in my hometown.

Ah hear it now

Now they say it's run it's race and there's a new pub in its place

Not many of the old gang left around

In my mind I'll always see, the way things used to be

In that little old one horse pub in my hometown.

At that little old one horse pub in my hometown.
