Oh I've got a 30-25 and a Peekout scope
Got myself a 4 wheel drive and a heart that's full of hope
I've got some caps and loading gear and pegs to peg skins out
Goin' to make a fortune, shootin' roos way out
I've got myself a Markee tent and all the gear to camp
even got a kero fridge and a tilly lamp
got a month's supply of tucker and a big camp oven too
soon I'll be in business shootin' kangaroos
Go'n to hunt at night time
when the roos come out to feed
hold 'em with the spot light while I draw a bead
taking skins by lamplight, then by day I'll rest
goin' to be a big shot in the mighty west
When I see a dingo, then his scalp he'll lose
just a little sideline to the kangaroos
even sportin' fox scalps and the wild pigs' snouts
Goin' to make a fortune, shootin' roos way out
Now if the skins aren't bringin' prices like they should
maybe lots of paddy bags and the pelts no good
well then I'll work the freezers and shoot for carcases
Goin' to make a fortune on the nightly beat
Oh I've got a 30-25 and a Peekout scope
Got myself a 4 wheel drive and a heart that's full of hope
I've got some caps and loading gear and pegs to peg skins out
Goin' to make a fortune, shootin' roos way out
Goin' to make a fortune, shootin' roos way out
