Saddle Old Brownie

Saddle old Brownie A saddle on me old brown horse, To ride away into the sunset, Light swag on me old pack of course, Nother horse called my Regret. Carry flour for damper or tasty fried scones, Sugar n tea, few spuds n onions, Carry a stockwhip to flog off the dogs, Or galahs with the loony some ones. Camp every night by blazing fire light, Out where the Coolabahs sway, Dip water from the river and boil, Gumleaf smelling tea today. Seach for mussels at the waters edge, Put him on the hook today, Catch em a cod, good tucker by God, Spit out the bones I may, Protein n calcium hey…. Don Johnson 20-july-11
