Well I've ripped and dug out burrows [F#] on a sandy bullock hill
[B] Eradicating rabbits [F#] doesn't take a lot of skill
But [D#] a boy born in the Mallee doesn't find them hard [F#] to kill
No self-respecting farmer lets a rodent eat his weed
[B] He'll shoot them and he'll skin them [F#] and he'll dress them up to eat
But [G#m] since the spread of mixo he's almost got them big
And I don't mind at all if you call me a [B] Mallee boy
Where little town dogs [F#] howl at the morning train
[B] Where a cocky mate's a-living on [G#] twelve inches of rain
[G#m] Where his woman provides and is rare to [F#] complain
[B] And I still love the smell of that sandy soil
Some say it's dusty, [F#] some say it's gold
Cos [G#m] it grows the sweetest fat lambs the market's ever sold
And I don't mind at all if you call me a Mallee [B] boy
[E]
[B]
[F#] No I don't mind at all if you call me a [B] Mallee boy
Where you could lose an ear on dark opening day
Where slickers bring their [F#] shotguns from miles away
[G#m] And shoot the life out of shags and swans that fly [F#] their way
[B] Where a bloke grows as stocky as a Mallee bull
Where they come from miles around [F#] to see the tractor pull
[G#m] When the paddocks are clean and seed silos are full
And I don't mind at all if you call me a [B] Mallee boy
Well I've ripped and dug out burrows [F#] on a sandy bullock hill
[B] Eradicating rabbits [F#] doesn't take a lot of skill
[D#] And a boy born in the Mallee doesn't find them hard to kill
But [B] they'll never be as rare as [F#] a Kwong Dong tree
[B] My grandma made some jam for [F#] my brothers and me
[G#m] They're like the Mallee fowl you hardly [F#] ever see
