Davey has a photo
From the day they met Slim Dusty
It hangs beneath the longhorns in a simple timber frame
And I dont know who is prouder
Davey or his old man
But you can see in in their faces and the way they said his name
They're missin' Slim
Missin' Slim
The bush has lost a hero and we all remember him
He was our mate
He was the king
We're missing slim
Missin' Slim
Scotty is a mountain man
Hard as snowy granite
But when "Pub" came on the radio I swear I saw a tear
His life was a movie
Slim Dusty was the soundtrack
But he never thought the end was ever quite so near
Chorus
They're missin' Slim
Missin' Slim
The bush has lost a hero and we all remember him
He was our mate
He was the king
We're missing slim
Missin' Slim
On the plains of peppimenarti
To the end of the Canning Stock-route
Three rivers and that Calahands and out to Camowheal
At Collingullie Station
Charleville and Isa
Where the rain still tumbles down back there in Nulla Nulla Creek
Chorus
Where're missin' Slim
Missin' Slim
The bush has lost a hero and we all remember him
Where're missin' Slim
Missin' Slim
Australia's lost a legend and we all remember him
He was our mate Ohhhhhh
He was the king
We're missing Slim
Missin' Slim
Missin' Slim
We're all missin' Slim
There're missin'Slim
There're all missing Slim
Ohhhhhh missin' Slim
