Bells in a Bushman's Ear

Don't knock the old hillbillies
 People love 'em out in the bush
 A simple tune with words that you can hear
 Y' don't need complications where hearts are kind and true
 Just words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear
 Maybe you need to stroll down a little dirt track
 Slow down and walk in time with a drover
 Hear the wind play a tune on the cypress pine
 Y' don't need beer and y' don't need wine
 Just words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear
 Like the hovering kite that whistles
 Telephone wires that hum
 Thunderstorms that rumble loud and clear
 He smells the rain that's coming
 Hear the cockies screech and yell
 Words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear
 Maybe you need to stroll down a little dirt track
 Slow down and walk in time with a drover
 Rattle an enamel mug with a spoon
 Talk to y' dog, or talk to the moon
 With words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear
 Yeah rattle an enamel mug with a spoon
 Throw him a bone and make him swoon
 Words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear
 No don't knock the old hillbillies
 People love 'em out in the bush
 A campfire is no place for rock n' roll
 The proof is in the pudding, they don't come and go
 Images embedded in your soul
 Maybe you need to stroll down a little dirt track
 Slow down and walk in time with a drover
 And when it rains y' run amuck
 Dance on the back of a cattle truck
 Yeah words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear
 Peaches swimmin' inside a tin
 Mutton chops that grease y' chin
 Yeah words that ring like Bells In A Bushman's Ear
