The Cunnamulla Fella    (1965)

Now I'm a scrubber, runner and a breaker too
I live on damper and wallaby stew
I've got a big cattle dog with a staghound cross
I never saw the scrubber we couldn't toss
'Cause I'm the Feller from Cunnamulla
Yes I'm the Cunnamulla Feller

Now once when I was drovin' on the cattle trails
I met a little girl, her name was Ada Vale
I said "Marry me, Ada, and I'll be the feller
And we'll settle down in Augathella"
I'll be the Feller at Augathella
Yes, I'll be the Augathella Feller

Oh, she said her daddy's name was Charley Ville
She had a lot of kiddies and a lot of bills
So I grabbed my horse that was nice and handy
And I never stopped till I reached Dirranbandi
I was the dandy at Dirranbandi
Yes, I was the Dirranbandi Dandy

Now in my moleskin trousers and my Williams' boots
Aboard an outlaw as he leaves the chutes
In my goose neck spurs I rake their fiery hide
And the girls all shouting around the ringside
Oh he's the Feller from Cunnamulla
Yeah, he's the Cunnamulla Feller

Now I've done a little fightin' in the western bars
Done a little lovin' 'neath the moon and stars
I wear bright clothes and shirts full of colour
And the girls know me as that certain feller
Yes, he's the Feller from Cunnamulla
Yes, he's the Cunnamulla Feller

Oh, he's the Cunnamulla Feller
Yes, he's the Cunnamulla Feller
