Colin Buchanan - Rocko lyrics

We searched out a quiet corner of the Middle Bre Hotel A couple of dudes from out of town and it wasn't hard to tell A fella with an old guitar Who'd been playing in the public bar Gave a gappy smile and said "G'day" We made our introductions And he gave our hands a shake His grip was like a wool press And I thought my hand would break Rocko pulled a chair up near Richard bought the man a beer He got out a match stick pick Began to play Chorus... Rocko was a sight to see Singing songs about his life in Bre Time to k** And a story to tell In that not-so-quiet corner Of the middle Bre Hotel Countless songs and yarns slipped by And it was nearly six Rocko gave the songs a rest And was doing matchbox tricks I shook his hand, he slapped my back I took off down the Cobar track With Rocko's songs still ringing in my ears Chorus...
