Three Rivers Hotel
John Williamson

From Townsville to Greenvale we're building a line

Through the ranges and the gorges and the great nickel mine

The long days are dusty and hotter than hell

And that's why we all worship Three Rivers Hotel

There's Thiess Brothers camp on the banks of the Star

Where men from all nations and walks of life are

And it's funny to listen to the stories they tell

Every night 'round the bar at Three Rivers Hotel

And we curse at the things that go wrong through the day

And vow that we'll snatch it, and go far away

But when day is done and we're soon feeling well

The laughter rings out from Three Rivers Hotel

And the night after payday there's fun and romance

It's a night for the fam'lies to sing and to dance

You can let down your hair and come out of your shell

You can do your own thing in Three Rivers Hotel

And if you listen to the bosses when the night's gettin' late

On the progress they're makin' the best in the state

They'd be finished this line and the maintenance as well

If they worked like they bragged in Three Rivers Hotel

All together now

From Townsville to Greenvale we're building a line

Through the ranges and the gorges and the great nickel mine

The long days are dusty and hotter than hell

And that's why we all worship Three Rivers Hotel

Oh the long days are dusty and hotter than hell

And that's why we all worship Three Rivers Hotel
