Aussie Rocker,
easy listening/soft rock here.
eighth solo set
failed to chart.
come folk, some country, mainly soft rock though.
my favourite album of his by a long shot,
love just about every track on here.
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
favourite, a beautiful ode to his young son.
Standing at the platform, waiting for a train
Better take out your umbrella 'cause it looks like rain
God made the bees and the bees made the honey
God made the man and the man made money
You're the man who cannot dance, who says the band just cannot play
Steady on, little man, you've had a busy day
You've been playing soldiers and marching ones and twos
You've been fighting hard for freedom and scuffing up your shoes
Standing on the flight deck - a powerful sight
And made it thunder at the weak when they don't want to fight
And your war is just like love, it will always find a way
Steady on little man you've had a busy day
You've been playing cowboys letting off a little steam
Sitting tall in the saddle with big hat no cattle and dreaming your ten gallon dream
Hell bound sin-hound blasphemous dream
And another colded Jesus and tangled trinity
Herod made the devil in the salad days
And the blood red carpet guttered gods with feet of clay
And the lion takes your tongue and the wickedness who weighs
Steady on, little man, you've had a busy day
And every stake that fights the fan loses Don Quixote
Steady on, little man, you've had a busy day
Steady on, little man, you've had a busy day
(And a lion takes your tongue...)
