Im a ringer from the top end where ya gotta know your job And what youre doin each day on 2 million acres you bet Ya have to earn your pay if ya wanna take it on Theres one thing that shouldnt be forgotten Nobody else can do the job like a ringer from the top end Out on the fence line swallowing dust, blood on my hands from the barb Hoping that rogue bull wont see the hole before they get him in the yard But I get a funny feeling in the middle of my back Sure enough hes coming like a train down the track Thats when nobody else moves faster than the ringer from the top end Instrumental Im a ringer from the top end Where ya gotta muster 3 thousand head in a day Move em to the yards and water them at end of day Its not the sort of job youd take if youre looking for a soft one But ya take a kinda pride in saying, Im a ringer from the top end. Well I roll out my swag neath the boab tree And then Im out like a light dreaming about those girls in town Next thing its broad daylight no time to dream of what might have been Im in a dirty bull catcher with the mustering team I better keep my mind on the job cause Im a ringer from the top end. Hey! And nobody does the job better than a ringer from the top end. Oh Yeah!
