If just passing through mt isa

Don't forget to take the time

To go around old mate an' meet

A real good friend of mine.

Yet ive looked in beauty parlours

Or the modern fashion stores

You'll find her at the sale yards

Loading fats or dipping stores.

She's as hard an tough as greenhide'

With a heart of solid gold

Educated on the stock routes

In the droving days of old.

Taking nightwatch tething horses

On the famous murringai

Living close to god and nature

Where the wedgetail eagles fly.

Hey!

Bridge

Her father was a teacher

And he put her to the test

In the college of the stockmen

On the big camps in the west.

She can educate a young horse

In a firm and gentle way

Just like her father taught her

On the stock routes in his day.

And she takes a lot of shifting

From the park and pully seat

In a fair go on a plucker

Shes pretty hard to beat.

And in the rodeo arena

At the isa every year

With a pick up men shes working

Shed beat stockmen tending gear. hey!

She can ply the awl an' needles

She can use the shoein gear

And when the days work's over mate

Shell join you in a beer.

Well respected by the bushmen

All through the northern line

She's a credit to her father

From the old stock riding line.

She has known the joys and sorrows

Of a mother and a wife

And it mostly is the good

Who are the loosers in this life.

So when you meet her she would greet you

With a handshake rough and hard

So don't forget to tell her mate

We all send our best regards. hey!

Spoken

Yeah mate don't forget to tell her

We all send our best regards.

We really do.
