The Shed

The Shed

(album: Road Thru The Heart - 1985)

Hey, did you ever wake up in the morning
On the wrong side of the bed
A bit confused and yawning
You go straight out the back to your shed

Yeah, all Australian boys need a shed
A place where he can go, somewhere to clear his head
To think about the things his woman said
Yeah, all Australian boys need a shed

A joint to learn to read an' write, to work on his bike at night
To grow up as he likes, to grow anything under lights
A place to keep his tools, nuts and bolts and drills
To hang a hide, to hide the dry or hang to pay the bills

Well my old shed, she leaks a bit, the roof is caving in
Nothing that a bloke can't fix with a few spare sheets of tin
The beams are old telegraph poles, white ants have eaten out
She creaks and sways on windy days and leans towards the south

And there's a fridge in the corner with a few cans on the ice
And a calendar from the tire service hangs above the vice
All the pictures so far are easy on the eye
But I've had a sneaky preview and I can't wait for July

Yeah, all Australian boys need a shed

At the back of the shed where the dogs are fed near last years bails of Lucerne
Sticky tall green leaves came up from thrown out seeds
All it took was bantam poop, I watered 'em once and they grew some
They should be prime 'bout Easter time if no nosy neighbor steals 'em

Yeah, all Australian boys need a shed
To weld up broken gates, a place for all his mates
To come 'round Sunday arvo' for a jam
A place to make a racket, to find the pipe and pack it
To think about the things his woman said
Yeah, all Australian boys need a shed
Yeah, all Australian boys need a shed
Yeah, all Australian boys need a shed
