Mallee Boy

Well I've ripped and dug out burrows on a sandy bulloak hill [00:00:01]

Eradicating rabbits doesn't take a lot of skill[00:00:05]

But a boy born in the Mallee doesn't find 'em hard to kill[00:00:07]

No self-respecting farmer lets a rodent eat his wheat[00:00:14]

He'll shoot 'em and he'll skin 'em and he'll dress 'em up to eat[00:00:17]

But since the spread of mixo He's almost got 'em beat[00:00:21]

And I don't mind at all if you call me a Mallee boy[00:00:27]

Where little town dogs howl at the morning train [00:00:35]

Where a cocky makes a living on twelve inches of rain[00:00:38]

Where his woman provides and is rare to complain[00:00:41]

And I still love the smell of that sandy soil [00:00:48]

Some say it's dusty some say it's gold[00:00:52]

Cause it grows the sweetest fat lambs the markets ever sold[00:00:55]

And I don't mind at all if you call me a Mallee Boy [00:01:01]

No I don't mind at all if you call me a Mallee Boy [00:01:18]

Where you can lose an ear on duck opening day [00:01:25]

Where slickers bring their shotguns from miles away [00:01:29]

And shoot the life out of shags and swans that fly their way [00:01:32]

Where a bloke grows as stocky as a Mallee bull [00:01:38]

Where they come from miles around to see the tractor pull [00:01:42]

When the paddocks are clean and seed silos are full [00:01:45]

And I don't mind at all if you call me a Mallee Boy [00:01:52]

Well I've ripped and dug out burrows on a sandy bulloak hill [00:02:06]

Eradicating rabbits doesn't take a lot of skill [00:02:09]

And a boy born in the Mallee doesn't find 'em hard to kill [00:02:13]

But they'll never be as rare as a Quandong tree[00:02:19]

My grandma made some jam for my brothers and me[00:02:23]

They're like the Mallee Fowl you hardly ever see[00:02:27]

But I don't mind at all if you call me a Mallee Boy [00:02:31]

No I don't mind at all if you call me a Mallee Boy [00:02:40]

No I don't mind at all if you call me a Mallee Boy[00:02:57]
