Verse 1
C
G
we're building a line
Through the ranges and gorges
C
G
to the Great Nickel Mine
The long days are dusty and
It's Thief Brothers Camp
C
G
on the banks of the Stier
We're men from all nations
We curse at the things
C
G
that go wrong through the day
We vow that we'll snatch it
G
D
G
from Free River's Hotel
There's Wesley the barman
C
G
and young Irish Joe
Serving the booze and
C
G
collecting the dough
What a stir they would cause
And on the night after payday
C
G
there's fun and romance
It's a time for the families
C
G
to sing and to dance
You can let down your hair
And if you listen to the bosses
C
G
when the night's getting late
The progress they're making
C
G
is the best in the state
They'd be finished this line
G
D
G
in Three Rivers Hotel
And if you think you can drink,
C
G
we've got money to back
On stayers like Cass and
C
G
old Grady Jack
And they tell me Doc Watson
When this job is finished,
C
G
still chasing big dough
But wherever I wander,
G
E
Rivers Hotel
D
A
to the great nickel mine.
E

The long days are dusty and
I said the long days are dusty

Three Rivers Hotel.
