[Intro]

[Verse]
D A7 I'm a ringer from the top end where ya gotta know your job and what you're doin' each day D On 2 million acres, you bet you'll have to earn your pay G E If ya wanna take it on there's one thing that shouldn't be forgotten D A7 D Nobody else can do the job like a ringer from the top end
[Verse]
A E Out on the fence line swallowing dust, blood on my hands from the barb A7 Hoping that rogue bull won't see the hole before they get him in the yard D But I get a funny feeling in the middle of my back G E Sure enough, he's coming like a train down the track D A7 D That's when nobody else moves faster than this ringer from the top end. Look out now!

[Verse]
D A7 I'm a ringer from the top end where ya gotta muster 3 thousand head in a day D Move 'em to the yards and water them at end of day G E It's not the sort of job you'd take if you're looking for a soft one D A7 D But ya take a kinda pride in saying "I'm a ringer from the top end"
[Verse]
A E Well, I roll out my swag 'neath the boab tree and then I'm out like a light A Dreaming about those girls in town next thing it's broad daylight D No time to dream of what might have been G E I'm in a dirty bull catcher with a mustering team D A7 D I'd better keep my mind on the job 'cause I'm a ringer from the top end. Hey!
