Lyrics The Bush Has Had Enough - Slim Dusty

The Bush Has Had Enough

July first nineteen eightyfive a day for history books
We’ll show big spending governments it’s time to take a look
Yeah we’ll tell the tax collector too long they’ve made it rough
They’re squeezing enterprise to death the bush has had enough
The farmers and small business men have gathered on the lawn
Outside our national house of reps on a cold day winters morn
There’s wheat farmers and cowmen, sheepmen and truckies tough
We’ll show the blokes in Canberra the bush has had enough
Yes a hundred thousand farmers have taken to the street
In Mebourne, Perth and Adelaide on elastict sided feet
No more time for talking it’s time for gettng tough
We’re all united in one voice that the bush has had enough
Instrumental
In this land of endless distance where we battle droughts and flood
The goverment soon should realise our fuel is our lifes' blood
We’re asking for no handout just a better deal on tax
Yes all we’re asking is fair go get the government off our backs
Yes a hundred thousand farmers have taken to the street
In Mebourne, Perth and Adelaide on elastict sided feet
No more time for talking it’s time for gettng tough
We’re all united in one voice that the bush has had enough
Yes a hundred thousand farmers have taken to the street
In Mebourne, Perth and Adelaide on elastict sided feet
No more time for talking it’s time for gettng tough
We’re all united in one voice that the bush has had enough
