It's nearly sixty Cyears I've Gbeen a CCocky
Of Gdrought and fire and Cflood I've Glived through Dplenty
This Gcountry's Cdust and Gmud have Cseen my tears and GbloodD  
But it's Bmnearly Cover Dnow, and now I'm CeasyD  G

I married a Cfine girl when GI was Ctwenty
She Gdied in giving Cbirth when Gshe was Dthirty
No Gflying Cdoctor Gthen, just a Cgentle old black GginD  
But it's Bmnearly Cover Dnow, and now I'm CeasyD  G  D  
[Verse]
She Gleft me Cwith two Gsons and a Cdaughter
And a Gbone-dry farm whose Csoil cried Gout for Dwater
So my Gcare was Crough and Gready, but they Cgrew up fine and GsteadyD  
But it's Bmnearly Cover Dnow, and now I'm CeasyD  G  D  G  
[Verse]
My daughter married Cyoung and Gwent her Cown way
My Gsons lie buried Cby the GBurma DRailway
So Gon this Cland I've Gmade me own, I've Ccarried on aGloneD

City Cfolk these Gdays despise the CCocky
They Gsay, with subsidies and Call, we've Ghad it eaDsy
But there's no Gdrought or Cdying Gstock on a Csewered suburban GlotD  
Oh, it's Bmnearly Cover Dnow, and now I'm CeasyD  G  D  
[Verse]
It's Gnearly sixty Cyears I've Gbeen a CCocky
Of Gdrought and fire and Cflood I've Glived through Dplenty
This Gcountry's Cdust and Gmud have Cseen my tears and GbloodD  
But it's Bmnearly Cover Dnow, and now I'm CeasyD  G
