CAPO 4 (I'm pretty sure that's how Slim played it)
[Intro Chords]
[D] [C] [G] [D]
I[D]'m a ringer from the top end
Where ya gotta know your j[A]ob
And what you're doin' each day
On 2 million acres you bet
Ya have to earn your p[D]ay
If ya wanna take it on
There's one thing that shouldn't be fo[G]rgotten [Em]
N[G]obody can do the j[A]ob
Like a ringer from the t[D]op end
O[A]ut on the fence line swallowing dust
B[E]lood on my hands from the barb
Hoping that rogue bull won't see the hole
B[A]efore they get him in the yard
But I g[D]et a funny feeling in the middle of my back
S[G]ure enough he's coming like a tr[Em]ain down the track
T[G]hat's when nobody else moves fa[A]ster
Than the springer from the to[D]p end
I[D]'m a ringer from the top end
Where ya gotta muster [A]3 thousand head in a day
Move 'em to the yards and water them at end of d[D]ay
It's not the sort of job you'd take
If you're looking for a so[G]ft one [Em]
B[G]ut ya take a kinda pride in sa[A]ying
I'm a ringer from the t[D]op end
W[A]ell I roll out my swag 'neath the boab tree
A[E]nd then I'm out like a light
Dreaming about those girls in town
N[A]ext thing it's broad daylight
N[D]o time to dream of what might have been
I'm in a dir[G]ty bull catcher with the m[Em]ustering team
I[G] better keep my mind on the j[A]ob
'Cause I'm a ringer from the to[D]p end
A[G]nd nobody does the job be[A]tter
Than a ringer from the to[D]p end
