about

"THE BURRUMBUTTOCK HAY RUNNERS"
Brendan Smoother with Pete Denahy. This rollicking tune tells the story of true Australian spirit and lending a helping hand when times are tough.

lyrics

The calls gone up, Brendan Farrell’s doing it again
Calling all good truckies to lend a helping hand
Calling all good cocky’s with round or bale to spare
Taking feed to where it’s needed, stations dry and bare

CHORUS
Single trailer trucks
B-Doubles loaded up
Ten thousand tonne of golden hay, moving through the land
For the drought affected west
Aussie spirit at its best
The Burrumbuttock Hay Runners hit the road again

More than hay, these runners bring out packages of care
Homemakers learn to do without, such luxuries out there
Maybe it’ll get em through till the grasses shoot again
Dreaming of the day the kids are jumping puddles in the rain

REPEAT CHORUS

When the job is done and dusted, every bale is handed out
Knock the top clean off a cold one, maybe get into a shout
It’s been confirmed, the longest truckin convoy ever known
Mateship won ‘n’ yarns spun in the pub at Ilfracombe.

REPEAT CHORUS X 2

TAG
The Burrumbuttock Hay Runners hit the road again
Bumpa Farrell and his Hay Runners doin' it again
