A Pub With No Beer

Slim Dusty
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
It's lonesome away, from your kindred and all
2
By the campfire at night, where the wild dingoes call
3
But there's nothing so lonesome, so morbid or drear
4
Than to stand in a bar, of a pub with no beer
5
Now the publicans anxious, for the quota to come
6
There's a faraway look, on the face of the bum
7
The maids gone all cranky , and the cooks acting queer
8
What a terrible place, is a pub with no beer
9
Then the stockman rides up, with his dry dusty throat
10
He breasts up to the bar, pulls a wad from his coat
11
But the smile on has face, quickly turns to a sneer
12
When the barman said sadly, the pubs got no beer
13
There's a dog on the v'randah, for his master he waits
14
But the boss is inside, drinking wine with his mates
15
He hurries for cover, and cringes with fear
16
Its no place for a dog, round a pub with no beer
17
Old Billy the blacksmith, first time in his life
18
Has gone home cold sober, to his darling wife
19
He walks in the kitchen, she says your early my dear
20
But he breaks down and tells her, the pubs got no beer
