Recycled Ringer |
I’ve got a pretty big load on a bitumen road |
And the needle’s on 110 |
Got a big mob of wheels and a whole lot of steers |
Rolling 'cross the Top End |
Rollin' 'cross the Top End |
In a supercharged computerized Benz |
I used to ride over this track as a drover |
But I’m not gonna do it again |
No I’m not gonna do it again |
Got the cool air a-blowing and the CD a-going |
And a cooler full of lemonade, too |
Not like it was when we walked the big mobs |
Way the hell down the Barcoo |
Way the hell down the Barcoo |
Had the rot and the sandy blight too |
Weevils in the flour and the cook gettin' sour |
Way the hell down the Barcoo |
Yeah way the the hell down the Barcoo (that's right) |
Now my old ringer mates were shown the bush gates when the choppers and bikes |
came along |
The hobbles and bell rung out the death knell |
An old way of life dead and gone |
Oh, an old way of life dead and gone |
But a man’s gotta keep moving on |
So they recycled me, made a truckie out of me |
Now I gotta keep moving on |
Hey I gotta keep this rig rolling on |
Got a pretty big load on a bitumen road |
And the needle’s on 110 |
Got a big mob of wheels and a whole lot of steers |
Rolling 'cross the Top End |
Hey rollin' 'cross the Top End, yeah |
