And a couple of cups of sugar and two spoons of drippin' too
Sultanas and some raisins as you wish.

Oh I haven't seen a ringer yet that couldn't eat a horse,
When he was workin' cattle in the yard,
Oh, there's nothin' like a brownie mate and a cup of billy tea,
For smoko when you're brandin' all those calves.
