Slim Dusty - It's Good To See You Mate lyrics

rate me

It's good to see you mate,

With your smiling face comin through the gate,

It's good to see you mate, it's been a while,

Times gone down when weve been a clown,

Brings the memories floodin in,

It's good to see you mate, stick around a while.

Pick up that old guitar an' play a tune,

Remember that Sunday afternoon,

Our hopes and dreams were fairly well defined,

As the years roll on we lost the plot,

Its not what we want its what weve got,

Sing that song again and make us smile,

Come on makes us smile.

Hey! It's good to see you mate,

With your smiling face comin through the gate,

It's good to see you mate, it's been a while,

Times gone down when weve been a clown,

Brings the memories floodin in,

It's good to see you mate, stick around a while.

Hey! It's good to see you mate, stick around a while.

Hey! It's good to see you mate,

With your smiling face comin through the gate,

It's good to see you mate, it's been a while,

Times gone down when weve been a clown,

Brings the memories floodin in,

It's good to see you mate, stick around a while.

Hey! It's good to see you mate, stick around a while.
