But what s the use of writing bush	A
Though editors demand it	B
For city folk and farming folk	C
Can never understand it	B
They re blind to what the bushman sees	D
The best with eyes shut tightest	E
Out where the sun is hottest and	F
The stars are most and brightest	E
The crows at sunrise flopping round	G
Where some poor life has run down	H
The pair of emus trotting from	I
The lonely tank at sundown	H
Their snaky heads well up and eyes	J
Well out for man s manoeuvres	J
And feathers bobbing round behind	K
Like fringes round improvers	J
	-
The swagman tramping cross the plain	L
Good Lord there s nothing sadder	M
Except the dog that slopes behind	K
His master like a shadder	M
The turkey tail to scare the flies	J
The water bag and billy	N
The nose bag getting cruel light	O
The traveller getting silly	N
	-
The plain that seems to Jackaroos	J
Like gently sloping rises	J
The shrubs and tufts that s miles away	P
But magnified in sizes	J
The track that seems arisen up	Q
Or else seems gently slopin	L
And just a hint of kangaroos	J
Way out across the open	L
	-
The joy and hope the swagman feels	J
Returning after shearing	R
Or after six months tramp Out Back	S
He strikes the final clearing	R
His weary spirit breathes again	L
His aching legs seem limber	M
When to the East across the plain	L
He spots the Darling Timber	M
	-
But what s the use of writing bush	A
Though editors demand it	B
For city folk and cockatoos	J
They do not understand it	B
They re blind to what the whaler sees	J
The best with eyes shut tightest	E
Out where Australia s widest and	F
The stars are most and brightest	E
