"Since The Bushland Boogie Came This Way" lyrics
Oh de ley ooh de ley oh de ley dee
Oh, the gumtrees at the seven mile
Swing and sway in the boogie style
The reed beds in the river sweep and sway
And the possums hop around in glee
And dingos howl in an off E-key
Since the Bushland Boogie came around this way
Now the swaggy jumped up from the hedge
Rushed to the parson, signed the pledge
And even threw his bottles all away
For just outside his old bark shack
A lazy old wombats ballin' the Jack
Since the Bushland Boogie came around this way
Oh de ley ooh de ley oh de ley dee
There's farmer Greys old jersey cow
Strutting around the cow yard now
She swings her hips in a stately minuet
And the old man sits on the cow yard rail
Banging his pipe on and empty pale
Since the Bushland Boogie came around this way
For his old grey mere and neighbours hack
Cleared out together to the great outback
To join the frolics where the brumbies play
Everyone gets around with a jig and prance
And dreams about the old barn dance
Since the Bushland Boogie came around this way
Oh de ley ooh de ley oh de ley dee
Now a fella coming home from the local pub
Took another look, gave his eyes a rub
And very smartly gave the booze away
He swears by everything that's true
He saw an emu jazzing with a kangaroo
And the magpies whistled in the boogie-woogie way
Oh, the gumtrees at the seven mile
Swing and sway in the boogie style
And the reed beds in the river sweep and sway
Everyone gets around with a jig and prance
And dreams about the old barn dance
Since the Bushland Boogie came around this way
Oh de ley ooh de ley oh de ley dee
Oh, the gumtrees at the seven mile
Swing and sway in the boogie style
The reed beds in the river sweep and sway
And the possums hop around in glee
And dingos howl in an off E-key
Since the Bushland Boogie came around this way
Now the swaggy jumped up from the hedge
Rushed to the parson, signed the pledge
And even threw his bottles all away
For just outside his old bark shack
A lazy old wombats ballin' the Jack
Since the Bushland Boogie came around this way
Oh de ley ooh de ley oh de ley dee
There's farmer Greys old jersey cow
Strutting around the cow yard now
She swings her hips in a stately minuet
And the old man sits on the cow yard rail
Banging his pipe on and empty pale
Since the Bushland Boogie came around this way
For his old grey mere and neighbours hack
Cleared out together to the great outback
To join the frolics where the brumbies play
Everyone gets around with a jig and prance
And dreams about the old barn dance
Since the Bushland Boogie came around this way
Oh de ley ooh de ley oh de ley dee
Now a fella coming home from the local pub
Took another look, gave his eyes a rub
And very smartly gave the booze away
He swears by everything that's true
He saw an emu jazzing with a kangaroo
And the magpies whistled in the boogie-woogie way
Oh, the gumtrees at the seven mile
Swing and sway in the boogie style
And the reed beds in the river sweep and sway
Everyone gets around with a jig and prance
And dreams about the old barn dance
Since the Bushland Boogie came around this way
Oh de ley ooh de ley oh de ley dee
