Rowan Songs About Dogs (270* d) RE: Songs About Dogs 10 Mar 10


Recited:
As I came down Talbingo Hill
I heard a maiden cry
"There goes old Bill the bullocky!
He's bound for Gundagai."

Well, a better poor old bugger
never earned an honest crust
and a tougher bullock driver
never drug his whip through dust!

Bill's team got bogged
on Five Mile Creek;
Bill lashed and cursed and cried,
"If Nobby don't get me out of this
I'll tattoo his flamin' hide!"

Well Nobby strained and broke the yoke
and poked out Baldy's eye
and the dog shat in the tucker box
five miles from Gundagai!

followed by singing the song, "Five Miles from Gundagai", also often referred to as "Nine Miles from Gundagai".

Cheers, Rowan
