Slim Dusty - Rough Riders lyrics

Your rating:

You can sing your songs of Spinifex and a horse like 
Ginger Meggs
An outlaw such as Curio, the meanest on four legs
But when the flags are flyin' at a big time rodeo
It's the boys who ride the circuit who really make the 
show.

So form up your committee and round up all your nags
Bring in the bulls and wild eyed steers an' cut out all 
the strags
Shut out the chutes and holding pens for the western 
folk all know
It's the boys who ride and risk their necks who really 
make the show.

He's a knight in leather armour, and he sits on a 
leather throne
He's a bushman and a battler, and a breed all of his 
own
So when the gates fly open and he makes out of the 
chute, 
You can dip your hats and raise your voice he's worthy 
of salute.

[Yodels] 

who've learned their trade
In the toughest school of the big outback, the school 
where men are made
Roughriders and their ropemen and they bulldog for a 
thrill
They take their chance and bite the dust and never mind 
the spill.

Broken bones won't keep them home, they're not that way 
inclined
A reckless code along the road out for a darn good 
time,
They crawl a mile and drag their swags to give the 
crowd a show,
And help a mate along the track and fear they never 
show.

He's a knight in leather armour, and he sits on a 
leather throne
He's a bushman and a battler, and a breed all of his 
own
So when the gates fly open and he makes out of the 
chute, 
You can dip your hats and raise your voice he's worthy 
of salute

[Yodels]
