What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
It's lonesome away from your kindered and all
2
By the campfire at night where the wild Dingos call
3
But there's nothin' so lonesome, so dull or so drear
4
Than to stand in the bar of a pub with no beer
5
Now the Publican's anxious for the quota to come
6
There's a faraway look on the face of the bum
7
The maid's gone all cranky and the cook's acting queer
8
What a terrible place is a pub with no beer
9
The stock man rides up with his dry, dusty throat
10
He breasts up till the bar, pulls a wad from his coat
11
But the smile on his face quickly turns to a sneer
12
When the barman says suddenly, "The pub's got no beer"
13
There's a dog on the verandah, for his master he waits
14
But the boss is inside drinking wine with his mates
15
He hurries for cover and he cringes in fear
16
It's no place for a dog round a pub with no beer
17
Old Billy, the blacksmith, the first time in his life
18
Has gone home cold sober to his darling wife
19
He walks in the kitchen, she says, "You're early, me dear"
20
Then he breaks down and he tells her that the pub's got no beer
21
It's lonesome away from your kindered and all
22
By the campfire at night where the wild Dingos call
23
But there's nothin' so lonesome, so dull or so drear
24
Than to stand in the bar of a pub with no beer
