Key:D
Capo:no capo
N.C spoken
(You've heard about Ned Kelly and those other famous crooks
I've seen them on the TV, I've seen them in my picture books
Well, here's a little song about a bloke so bad and mean
An evil, vicious outlaw, the worst there's ever been)
[Verse]
D A
Oh, out in the bush where the kookaburras fly where the gum trees reach to the
clear blue sky
D A D
There's a cave in the hillside where I hide, I'm a big, bad bush-bushranger
D A
Deep in the cave there's a big, black hole that's filled to the brim with locks
of gold
D A D
And diamond rings and things I stole, I'm a big, bad bush-bush ranger
[Pre-Chorus]
G D A D
Late at night when the sun goes down and everyone's asleep in town
G D A D
I count all my money in my dressing gown, I'm a big, bad bush-bushranger
[Chorus]
D
I'm a bush, I'm a bush, I'm a bush-bush ranger
A
Runnin' from the law, livin' on danger
D
Bang, bang, hands up, stick 'em up straight
A D
I'm a big, bad bush-bush ranger
[Verse]
D A
Got a rope and a whip and a gun, of course, I'm chased everywhere by the bush
police-force
D A
While I ride through the night on my big black horse, I'm a big, bad, bush-bush
D
ranger
D A
And when the townsfolk see me ride they lock all the doors and stay inside
D A D
And find a place that's safe to hide, I'm a big, bad, bush-bush ranger
[Pre-Chorus]
G D A D
I ride thirty miles through the wind and hail to hold up a bank or the Royal Mail
G D A D
I give all my money to my girlfriend, Gayle, I'm a big, bad, bush-bush ranger
[Chorus]
D
I'm a bush, I'm a bush, I'm a bush-bush ranger
A
Runnin' from the law, livin' on danger
D
Bang, bang, hands up, stick'em up straight
A D
I'm a big, bad bush-bushranger
[Verse]
D A
I sleep every mornin' till half past nine, have m'brekky in bed, then rise and
shine
D A
Get dressed in my best for my life of crime,
A D
I'm a big, bad bush-bushranger
