Still Circling

He's movin' all his stock, to that bare paddock

The fire's comin' through and it's comin' fast

With 1600 sheep and 200 cattle

When it comes to givin up he'd be the last

And the old brigade came by with the bad news

The big burn's on it's way and we need your help

So he kissed his wife goodbye and said i love you

And he left his stock to fend for themselves

It's just how it goes

And he's stil circlin'

'round and 'round upon this dusty land

And he'll keep the mob together while he's workin'

Always keen to lend a helpin' hand

And he's still circlin

A windshift turned the fire past his homestead

And he was faced with putin' down his injured stock

Across the smokey flat all lame and breathless

His collie cirled round the frightened mob

He's doin' his job

And he's stil circlin'

'round and 'round upon this dusty land

And he'll keep the mob together while he's workin'

Always keen to lend a helpin' hand

And he's still circlin

Through drought and flood and fire

Through hardship and good time

I'll raise my glass to every man and dog

If you look you'll always find

They're stil circlin'

'round and 'round upon this dusty land

And they'll keep the mob together while they're workin'

Always keen to lend a helpin' hand

And they're still circlin

Still circlin'
