Verse 1
G
C
G
With an old .22 I went out for a roo
C
G
To feed up my old cattle hound
G
C
For all I had left was one round
I cranked up the heat
C
G
And drove to a tank on the run
G
C
A man's almost certain for one.
C
G
The rifle held tight in my fist.
G
C
I squeezed on the trigger but missed.
Then in my disgust
C
G
That rifle and cursed at my aim
C
F
I came for a rue and that's what I will do
G
C
G
C
The old dog will eat just the same
I turned on the lights
C
G
And bailed up a buck kangaroo
G
C
Never dreaming just what he would do
He grabbed at the stick
C
G
My shirt was ripped open both sides
G
C
I was minus a pair of good strides
He won every round,
C
G
With hoppers I thought were of steel
C
F
Then away I did shoot like
a young bandicoot
G
C
With that old kangaroo on my heels
I climbed up the tree
C
G
Went bounding away through the night
G
C
And passed out on the seat like a light
When I woke from my doze
C
G
And aching all over to boot
C
F
My trousers and shirt are no more,
that's a cert
G
C
I arrived home in my birthday suit
Now I've knocked around in
C
G
Cook of eating and many, that's true
C
G
C
fucked kangaroo you
