Truthful Fella - Slim Dusty

I was born up in the mountains out where the snakes grow legs

Where the wallabies all speak English and the kookaburras lay square eggs

I shaved my beard and whiskers off at the ripe old age of two

And then I straightened out my dad and drank his best home brew

Oh I'm a truthful fella I was born in broken hill

I've never told a falsehood and you bet I never will

Now once when I was a flyer and in my aeroplane

I flew out west to birdsville then I started back again

When I got half way over the blasted motor balked

So I left the jolly thing stuck up there

And I just got out and walked

Oh I'm a truthful fella I was born in broken hill

I've never told a falsehood and you bet I never will

Now once when I was fishing up north in kakadu

By crocodiles I was captured and those scalies ate my crew

But I downed a bottle of op rum that really is good stuff

Then the crocodiles all swam away because I looked to tough

Oh I'm a truthful fella I was born in broken hill

I've never told a falsehood and you bet I never will

Once more when I was fishing out on the ocean blue

I had a prawn upon my line he was such a beauty too

But a whale came up and grabbed the bait

And I said immediately here's a show

And I would have got that whale you see

But the bloody old prawn let go

Oh I'm a truthful fella I was born in broken hill

I've never told a falsehood and you bet I never will

Oh I was raised up in the mountains out where the snakes grow legs

Where the wallabies all speak English and the kookaburras lay square eggs

And if you don't believe me you can ask my uncle peach

He drove a herd of cattle once to tassie round the beach yeah

Oh I'm a truthful fella I was born in broken hill

I've never told a falsehood and you bet I never will
