No One Else
Tex Beaumont & The Dirty Hearts

Gather round lads, let me tell you a story
I know that it is sad, don’t know if it is true
The mill boys sing of a woman from Babinda
Who could swing a cane knife just like the gun cutters do
And when she’d swing she’d sing with a voice as clear as the morning
And her hips they swayed like the cane fields swayed
in the warm northern breeze
And when she moved she flowed like molassess
Dark and smooth and sweet
And her laugh was like the rain, wash away the solid heat

No one else ever looked that way
No one else ever sang that way
No one else ever moved that way
And when she walked through town all the Tully boys said
Shake it
Shake it
Shake it
Shake shake shake shake shake it

The monsoon rains came down in November
The Johnstone River ran brown and wide
Two cruel eyes watched as she rested by the water's edge
Old man croc snap!
The canelands cry
He go
Shake, roll, dive to the bottom of the river
Shake, roll, dive to the bottom of the river
Shake, roll, dive to the bottom of the river
Shake, roll, dive to the bottom of the river

That was many years before
The men don't swing their knives no more
but the cane fields are sill growing
The Johnstone is still flowing
And the old men watch the flames dance as the cane fields burn
The flames shake and dance as the memories return
No one else ever looked that way
No one else ever sang that way
No one else ever moved that way
And when she walked through town all the Tully boys said
Shake it

Wow! This is very groovy! Love the bass playing. Great singing and a very enjoyable song. The keys sound cool, however I think another organic/acoustic instrument would work a bit better. Good stuff!
