In Footsteps of Clancy

living in the 1970s ,living the poem of Banjo Patterson We still had dreams of making a future in the country Wool was good as were cattle prices Country was still cheap In the air Australia was our country Not China's As now There was a future Dream big and go and do it A country boy was part of the country The bush gave a happy future It was the Australian Dream It was of boy becoming a man this story in the hardest and loneliest part of Australia Of loneliness and eaten alive by cannibal pigs and crocodiles who swallowed cattle whole in the silence of the dark, of the night To live amongst your dreams and make a future of it That is only a man world
