Original text with translation

The Desert Lair

Slim Dusty

I was born way out in a blazin' drought on a cattle drovin' trip

I was raised on beef and I cut my teeth on the handle of a whip

Oh I was never named I was never tamed I’m as wild as a brumby mare

The desert land I roam the desert land’s my home and I’m known as the desert

lair

I’m long and lean from the desert land

I was taught to track by a Myall black in the channel country wild

I could hold the lead of a wild stampede when I should been a child

Oh I was never named I was never tamed, I’m as rough as prickly pear

The desert land I roam the desert land’s my home and I’m known as the desert

lair

I’m long and lean from the desert land

Now I never bathe and I never shave I’m as wild as the land that I roam

I just don’t fit in with my civilized kin I belong in my desert home

Oh I was never named I was never tamed and I never grieve or care

The desert land I roam the desert land’s my home and I’m known as the desert

lair

I’m long and lean from the desert land

Long and lean from the desert land.
