Leaning Post

Slim Dusty

You've been around a-playin', now do I hear you sayin' 
That you still love me the most
My love you now desire, but there's a bad misfire
Don't take me for your leanin' post

When you were in the limelight, I never got the spotlight
I wasn't good enough to know
You say you're sad and sorry for causin' all the worry
And that you need me so

Well, if I believe your story and take you back and love you
I'm the boss and there's no suppose
And I hope you've learned your lesson and there'll be no more guessin'
Who's gonna be your leanin' post

Ah, let's hear it now

You've been around a-playin', now do I hear you sayin' 
That you still love me the most
My love, you now desire, but there's a bad misfire
Don't take me for your leanin' post

When you were in the limelight, I never got the spotlight
I wasn't good enough to know
You say you're sad and sorry for causin' all the worry
And that you need me so

Well, if I believe your story and take you back and love you
I'm the boss and there's no suppose
And I hope you've learned your lesson and there'll be no more guessin'
Who's gonna be your leanin' post, oh yeah
Who's gonna be your leanin' post, oh yeah
Who's gonna be your leanin' post, oh yeah       [fade]
