Slim Dusty Walk a Country Mile Lyrics:
Well I've walked a mile or two in my lifetime
And I've travelled down some muddy tracks and dry
'Cause if I wanted to get where I was goin'
I knew I'd just have to walk that country mile.

Now a country mile would be the longest distance
A man could ever travel when he's down,
And you curse the never ending road before you,
When you think you'll never make it into town.

But you meet a friend or two along the highway,
And you'll learn a lot you never knew before,
And if the journey takes a lifetime,
When you thought a year or two,
Well you just don't give up easy anymore.

And I've walked a mile or two in my lifetime,
And I've travelled down some muddy tracks and dry,

'Cause if I wanted to get where I was goin'
I knew I'd just have to walk that country mile.

[Instrumental]

Walkin' that long mile has shown me changes,
Changes in the people and the land.
But I'll bet the road to Marble Bar's no better,
Than when I drove with trucks and caravans.

And a country bloke is still the same old battler,
No matter what the place he's workin' in.
And although I've covered many miles,
I still can't wait to see,
What the next long country mile will bring.

Well I've walked a mile or two in my lifetime,
And I've travelled down some muddy tracks and dry,
'Cause if I wanted to get where I was goin',
I knew I'd just have to walk that country mile,
Yes I knew I'd have to walk that country mile.
