    • Verse 1
    Well I've ripped 
    and 
    dug 
    out 

    burrows 
    on 
    a sandy 
    bull 
    oak 
    hill 

    Erad
    icating 
    rabbits 
    doesn't 

    take 
    a lot 
    of skill 

    But 
    a 
    boy 
    born 
    in 
    the 
    Mallee 

    doesn't 
    find 
    'em hard 
    to kill 

    Verse 2

    No 
    self- 
    respecting 
    farmer 
    lets 

    a rodent 
    eat 
    his 
    wheat 

    He'll shoot 
    'em 
    and 
    he'll skin 
    'em 

    and 
    he'll 
    dress 
    'em 
    up to 
    eat 

    But 
    since 
    the spread 
    of 
    mixo, 

    he's 
    almost 
    got 
    'em 
    beat 

    Verse 3
    And I 
    don't 
    mind 
    at 
    all 
    if 

    you call 
    me 
    a Mallee 
    boy 

    Verse 4
    Where 
    little 
    town 
    dogs 
    howl 

    at the morning 
    train 

    Where 
    a 
    cocky 
    makes 
    a living 

    on 
    twelve 
    inches 
    of 
    rain 

    Where 
    his 
    woman 
    provides 

    and 
    is 
    rare 
    to 
    com
    plain 

    Verse 5

    And I 
    still 
    love 
    the smell 
    of 
    that 
    sandy 
    soil 

    Some 
    say 
    it's 
    dusty, 

    some 
    say 
    it's 
    gold 

    'Cause 
    it grows 
    the sweetest 
    fat 

    lambs 
    the 
    markets 
    ever 
    sold 

    Verse 6

    And I 
    don't 
    mind 
    at 
    all 
    if 
    you call 

    me 
    a Mallee 
    boy 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 7
    No 
    I 
    don't 
    mind 
    at all 
    if 
    you 

    call 
    me 
    a Mallee 
    boy 

    Verse 8
    Where 
    you 
    can lose 
    an 
    ear 
    on 

    duck 
    opening 
    day 

    Where slickers 
    bring 
    their shotguns 

    from 
    miles 
    away 

    And 
    shoot 
    the life 
    out of 
    shags 

    and swans 
    that fly 
    their 
    way 

    Verse 9

    Where a 
    bloke 
    grows 
    as stocky 

    as 
    a Mallee 
    bull 

    Where 
    they come 
    from 
    miles 
    around 

    to see 
    the tractor 
    pull 

    When 
    the pad
    docks 
    are clean 

    and 
    seed 
    silos 
    are 
    full 

    Verse 10
    And I 
    don't 
    mind 
    at 
    all 
    if 
    you call 

    me 
    a Mallee 
    boy 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 11
    Well 
    I've 
    ripped 
    and 
    dug 
    out 
    burrows 

    on 
    a sandy 
    bull 
    oak 
    hill 

    Erad
    icating 
    rabbits 
    doesn't 

    take 
    a lot 
    of skill 

    And 
    a 
    boy 
    born 
    in 
    the 
    Mallee 
    doesn't 

    find 
    'em hard 
    to 
    kill 

    Verse 12

    But they'll 
    never 
    be 
    as 
    rare 
    as 

    a 
    quandong tree 

    My grandma 
    made 
    some 
    jam 

    for my 
    brothers 
    and me 

    They're 
    like 
    the 
    malleefowl you 

    hardly 
    ever 
    see 

    Verse 13
    But 
    I 
    don't 
    mind 
    at 
    all 
    if 
    you 

    call 
    me 
    a Mallee 
    boy 

    No 
    I 
    don't 
    mind 
    at all 
    if 
    you 

    call 
    me 
    a Mallee 
    boy 

    Interlude 3


    Verse 14
    No 
    I 
    don't 
    mind 
    at all 
    if 

    you 
    call 
    me 
    a Mallee 
    boy

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
