NOW I'M EASY- Eric BogleFor nearly sixty years, I've been a CockieOf droughts and fires and floods I've lived through plentyThis country's dust and mud have seen my tears and bloodBut it's nearly over now, and now I'm easyI married a fine girl when I was twentyBut she died in giving birth when she was thirtyNo flying doctor then, just a gentle old black 'ginBut it's nearly over now, and now I'm easyShe left me with two sons and a daughterOn a bone-dry farm whose soil cried out for waterSo my care was rough and ready, but they grew up fine and steadyBut it's nearly over now, and now I'm easyMy daughter married young, and went her own wayMy sons lie buried by the Burma RailwaySo on this land I've made me home, I've carried on aloneBut it's nearly over now, and now I'm easyCity folks these days despise the CockieSay with subsidies and dole, we've had it easyBut there's no drought or starving stock on a sewered suburban blockBut it's nearly over now, and now I'm easyFor nearly sixty years, I've been a CockieOf droughts and fires and floods, I've lived through plentyThis country's dust and mud, have seen my tears and bloodBut it's nearly over now, and now I'm easyAnd now I'm easyNOTES:Cockie: Australian small-scale family farmer'Gin (Jen): an Australian aboriginal woman(The term is nowadays considered to be derogatory)
