WHERE THE GOLDEN SLIPRAILS ARE DOWN
Slim Dusty


Lets walk down that long road together
the road that we know as lifes span
if you'll be my wife, 'til the end of my life
I'll be your true lovin' man
we'll take each steep grade together
let showers of strife tumble down
we'll share every bend 'til we find in the end
Where the golden sliprails are down

Lets walk down that long road together
'til lifes long journey is done
our thoughts straight ahead, like the great saviour said
we'll find his home one by one
in the glory of his tender blessing
eternal love will abound
no gates will be closed, in that heavenly abode
Where the golden sliprails are down

Lets walk down that long road together
the light from our love will show the way
your sweet tender smile will lighten each mile
and roll the dark clouds away
so come let us walk to the altar, our lives forever be bound
then we'll go as one towards the setting sun
Where the golden sliprails are down
