letra de mallee boy - john williamson

well i’ve ripped and dug out burrows on a sandy bulloak hill,
eradicating rabbits doesn’t take a lot of skill
but a boy born in the mallee doesn’t find ’em hard to kill
no self-respecting farmer lets a rodent eat his wheat
he’ll shoot ’em and he’ll skin ’em and he’ll dress ’em up to eat
but since the spread of mixo he’s almost got ’em beat
and i don’t mind at all if you call me a mallee boy
where little town dogs howl at the morning train,
where a c-cky makes a living on twelve inches of rain
where his woman provides and is rare to complain
and i still love the smell of that sandy soil,
some say it’s dusty, some say it’s gold
cause it grows the sweetest fat lambs the markets ever sold
and i don’t mind at all if you call me a mallee boy,
no i don’t mind at all if you call me a mallee boy.
where you can lose an ear on duck opening day,
where slickers bring their shotguns from miles away,
and shoot the life out of sh-gs and swans that fly their way.
where a bloke grows as stocky as a mallee bull,
where they come from miles around to see the tractor pull,
when the paddocks are clean and seed silos are full,
and i don’t mind at all if you call me a mallee boy.
well i’ve ripped and dug out burrows on a sandy bulloak hill,
eradicating rabbits doesn’t take a lot of skill,
and a boy born in the mallee doesn’t find ’em hard to kill.
but they’ll never be as rare as a quandong tree
my grandma made some jam for my brothers and me
they’re like the mallee fowl you hardly ever see
but i don’t mind at all if you call me a mallee boy.
no i don’t mind at all if you call me a mallee boy.
no i don’t mind at all if you call me a mallee boy.
