Slim Dusty - Duncan Lyrics






I love to have a beer with Duncan
I love to have a beer with Dunc.
We drink in moderation
And we never ever ever get rollin' drunk
We drink at the Town and Country
Where the atmosphere is great
I love to have a beer with Duncan
'Cause Duncan's me mate, yeah

I love to have a beer with Colin
I love to have a beer with Col.
We drink in moderation
And it doesn't really matter if he brings his doll
We drink at the Town and Country
Where the atmosphere is great
I love to have a beer with Colin
'Cause Colin's me mate, mm-mm-mm

I love to have a beer with Kevin
Oh I love to have a beer with Kev.
We drink in moderation
And he drives me home in his big old Chev.
We drink at the Town and Country
Where the atmosphere is great
I love to have a beer with Kevin
'Cause Kevin's me mate

I love to have a beer with Patrick
I love to have a beer with Pat
We drink in moderation
And it wouldn't really matter if the beer was flat
We drink at the Town and Country
Where the atmosphere is great
I love to have a beer with Patrick
'Cause Patrick's me mate - Change key

I love to have a beer with Robert
I love to have a beer with Bob
We drink in moderation
Just one more and back on the job
We drink at the Town and Country
Where the atmosphere is great
I love to have a beer with Robert
'Cause Robert's me mate

I love to have a beer with Duncan
Oh I love to have a beer with Dunc.
We drink in moderation
And we never ever ever get rollin' drunk
We drink at the Town and Country
Where the atmosphere is great
I love to have a beer with Duncan
'Cause Duncan's me mate
I love to have a beer with Duncan
'Cause Duncan's me mate

    B.... W....

    Billy Wiggins I have

    B.... W....

    @Nick Valerio So Did I

  22. s.... f....

    during the verse about Col, and doesn't even matter if he brings his doll , I picture him sitting at bar with Slim and a blow up rubber sex doll...don't blame me if your disgusted..Slim's the one writing the dirty songs!!!!

  23. H.... S....

    I remember as a kid I was embarrassed I liked Slim Dusty & when he died Mum could tell I was upset & let me stay home from school & I watched the funeral from behind our lounge on the TV so Mum wouldn't see me cry 😂❤ love Slim & love my Mum xx

    H.... S....

    Honeybee Sweet Why the hell would you have been embarrassed for God's sake!🤨🤠🎙️🎸

  24. G.... d....

    In his last (I think) interview, Slim admitted that this song was inspired by a poem sent to him by a Brisbane mail worker...who was my Dad! Laurence Kevin James Neill RIP Daddy xo https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3M36zAOFlLldXjDE3QTwxA

  25. M.... ....

    I always thought this song was "I'd like to have a dance with Dorothy" with the wiggles 😂😂😂

  26. c.... ....

    I really dont think i want to know any more about Col and his doll. Dont bring it to the pub!

  27. g.... ....

    A real boozy drinking song from a bygone era, it's getting too expensive to drink in a pub these days.

  28. j.... g....

    I love to have a beer with Aussie
    I love to have a beer with Oz
    We drink in moderation
    And we never need a reason, it's "just because"
    We drink at the Town and Country
    Where the atmosphere is great
    I love to have a beer with Aussie
    'Cos Aussie's me mate!

    Cheers from New Zealand!

    j.... g....

    Aussie is a shortening of Australian, not Australia. The shorter version of Australia is Straya.

    j.... g....

    @Lexiechooky Aussie can also be used as short for Australia.

    j.... g....

    @Lord Nelson No Nelson, it can't.

    j.... g....

    @Lexiechooky It's not very common but yes it can. There's a song from the First World War called "Take Me Back To Dear Old Aussie".

    j.... g....

    @Lord Nelson Yeah and you know what happened to the people in the first world war? They died. No doubt because they shortened Australia to 'Aussie'.

  29. s.... ....

    Fair well slim.

  30. B.... O....

    I heard this song when I was stationed in South Korea in 1996. There was a television in the NCO club that sometimes showed Australian country music videos. I still sing it almost every time I drink a beer even though I haven't heard it in 21 years. Thank you Mr. Dusty for a song I'll carry around until the day I die. God rest his soul.

  75. T.... ....

    My name is Duncan. Any other Aussie Duncans out there? I was 18 and 'cool' and I was too cool for this country cheezy Auusie-B-Grade Nashville. But one of my best friends would joke with me about it, and he didn't give a damn about being cool. It disturbed me, I am having a drink with Duncan now, by myself, watching this. Cool? I don't think so.

    T.... ....

    TommyTwobats I'm Duncan but from canada

  83. O.... ....

    wow, I didn't know there was a music video for this song! Slim Dusty's songs makes me proud to be an Australian!!!

  84. T.... D....

    Written by a gentleman named Pat Alexander. These days pay travels around telling his story to church groups.

    T.... D....

    he would be a fair age these days.

    T.... D....

    I hope you're not say that Slim never wrote his own songs.

    T.... D....

    @planetX15 Slim said on tv once that he wrote this song and that it was inspired by a poem that had been sent to him by my Dad! My Dad's poem was called "The Shout", as in 'shouting' someone a beer!

  85. a.... a....

    Change kooyyee!
