Lee Kernaghan - An Ordinary Bloke lyrics

rate me

Jack can you tell me, I don't understand

Why you're breaking your back out on this wretched land

Why do you do it so though with so little to show

He shrugged his shoulders and said, it's just what i know

And out in the scrub, he's sinking a bore

He's coverd in grease and his knuckles are raw

But he wont pack it in 'til hte brown water flows

Ask him why and he'll tell you, it's just what he knows

CHORUS

He's just an ordinary bloke, and he's doing us proud

What he's putting in keeps the wheels going round

Every day he'll be out there, battling or broke

But he shoulders the country, this ordinary bloke

A neghbour calls up, says he'll need every man

There's a scrub fire burning and its got out of hand

He'll help out his mate, its just how it goes

And he won't count the cost, it's just what he knows

REPEAT CHORUS

When war broke out in Europe came the call to enlist

And that brave Aussie boy with that big heart of his

Had something called honor etched in his bones

And he laid down his life, doing just what he knows

REPEAT CHORUS
