Текст (слова) песни: Eric Bogle - NOW I`M EASY



"NOW I`M EASY"

- Eric Bogle

For nearly sixty years, I`ve been a Cockie

Of droughts and fires and floods I`ve lived through plenty

This country`s dust and mud have seen my tears and blood

But it`s nearly over now, and now I`m easy

I married a fine girl when I was twenty

But she died in giving birth when she was thirty

No flying doctor then, just a gentle old black `gin

But it`s nearly over now, and now I`m easy

She left me with two sons and a daughter

On a bone-dry farm whose soil cried out for water

So my care was rough and ready, but they grew up fine and steady

But it`s nearly over now, and now I`m easy

My daughter married young, and went her own way

My sons lie buried by the Burma Railway

So on this land I`ve made me home, I`ve carried on alone

But it`s nearly over now, and now I`m easy

City folks these days despise the Cockie

Say with subsidies and dole, we`ve had it easy

But there`s no drought or starving stock on a sewered suburban block

But it`s nearly over now, and now I`m easy

For nearly sixty years, I`ve been a Cockie

Of droughts and fires and floods, I`ve lived through plenty

This country`s dust and mud, have seen my tears and blood

But it`s nearly over now, and now I`m easy

And now I`m easy

NOTES:

Cockie: Australian small-scale family farmer

`Gin ("Jen"): an Australian aboriginal woman

(The term is nowadays considered to be derogatory)
