|
Don't knock the old hillbillies |
|
People love 'em out in the bush |
|
A simple tune with words that you can hear |
|
Y' don't need complications where hearts are kind and true |
|
Just words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear |
|
Maybe you need to stroll down a little dirt track |
|
Slow down and walk in time with a drover |
|
Hear the wind play a tune on the cypress pine |
|
Y' don't need beer and y' don't need wine |
|
Just words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear |
|
Like the hovering kite that whistles |
|
Telephone wires that hum |
|
Thunderstorms that rumble loud and clear |
|
He smells the rain that's coming |
|
Hear the cockies screech and yell |
|
Words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear |
|
Maybe you need to stroll down a little dirt track |
|
Slow down and walk in time with a drover |
|
Rattle an enamel mug with a spoon |
|
Talk to y' dog, or talk to the moon |
|
With words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear |
|
Yeah rattle an enamel mug with a spoon |
|
Throw him a bone and make him swoon |
|
Words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear |
|
No don't knock the old hillbillies |
|
People love 'em out in the bush |
|
A campfire is no place for rock n' roll |
|
The proof is in the pudding, they don't come and go |
|
Images embedded in your soul |
|
Maybe you need to stroll down a little dirt track |
|
Slow down and walk in time with a drover |
|
And when it rains y' run amuck |
|
Dance on the back of a cattle truck |
|
Yeah words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear |
|
Peaches swimmin' inside a tin |
|
Mutton chops that grease y' chin |
|
Yeah words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear |
