The Bath
An ordinary Australian from an ordinary country place
Who rallied to the flag's call with god's good grace

She was raw and raucous as I ever heard
But all leaned forward...

Did you ever have the feeling there's a man in your can?
Or a ball down the hall with an eye to spy?

A record listened to with such incessance
Its needle scratches and wobbles
Becomes desperate new notes for the melody?
The song unrecognizable to the listener

It was old Woody that lured me with
Dust Bowl Ballads and so much more
Telling stories of a West
