1. Caught the train to Cootamundra
|
Headed over to the waiting bus
|
Twenty minutes to stretch the legs
|
When this bloke rides up to us
|
Twelve speed pushbike, kung-fu jacket
|
The kiosk girl said, "Here comes Chook."
|
|
Chorus
|
You can see him 'round Coota on the old pushbike
|
With the B-double trailers and the CB mike
|
The locals grin and look and say
|
"Here comes Chook."
|
|
2. I wandered up, made his acquaintance
|
He pushed his glasses up on his nose
|
He kicked the tyres on his six-wheeled pushbike
|
And rubbed his aching toes
|
"Got a flat. Flamin' catheads."
|
He pulled a shifter from a box.
|
|
Chorus
|
|
3. While Chook was busy I got a coffee
|
Asked the bussies to fill me in
|
Jethro from the big white coach
|
Gave a crooked grin
|
"Chook meets the busses. Picks up rubbish.
|
Does Tae Kwon Do on the station lawn."
|
|
Chorus
|
|
4. Time was up, my bus was going
|
Chook said he was running late
|
As we pulled out Chook was chatting
|
On truckies' channel eight
|
Cootamundra - Bradman's Birthplace
|
Wattle Town and Home of Chook
|
|
Chorus
|
