About

An ode to the utility of a “bullcatcher” – a padded jeep or landcruiser with a steel arm for catching bulls that break away from the herd while mustering. A bullcatcher allows bulls to be run down faster than the traditional method of doing it horseback would.

Yellow Old Bullcatcher Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They're greasin' up their leather gear in the stockcamps of the North
Young ringers come all set for musterin' time
As for me I'm in the big shed workin' on a tough old lady
This yellow old bullcatcher love of mine

[Verse 2]
Dust clouds are risin' high into the northern sky
With the big boss up above with his noisy chopper
But I'm in touch by phone as we head the big mob home
I circle round and round in the old bullcatcher

[Verse 3]
An old devil, mate, to drive, but she keeps your mind alive
When the steering gear goes [?], look out she'll get ya
When a mad bull breaks away, that's when we show our play
And bring 'em back to the yellow old bullcatcher
(Look out now!)

[Instrumental bridge]

[Verse 4]
There's a bush camp by the river where the [?] fight like hell
And the crocodiles, old mate, ain't far behind
But I can't wait to get back
Down that dusty rugged track
And yakka with some old bush mates of mine

[Verse 5]
Oh there's new times on the bull bar
And sides of solid steel
When you're workin' in the bush no one can match her
When a mad bull breaks away, that's when we show our play
And bring 'em back to the yellow old bullcatcher

[Outro]
Hey, we bring 'em back to the yellow old bullcatcher
(That's right)
