Bush Telegraph
There's a rumour of a gold strike to the south of Ballarat,
And someone stole some cattle at the back of Carly's Flat.
There's been a fight in Dinny Ryan's Bar in Ararat.
You heard it on the Bush Telegraph.
Fat lambs brought a record price last week in Bendigo.
Tommy Burker's been to Mass three Sundays in a row.
It used to take a family death or drought to make him go.
You heard it on the Bush Telegraph.
Chorus
Now, we don't need no fancy wires to get the message through,
Satellites or thing-a-ma-jigs whizzing round the moon,
Or twenty feet of binder twine with a jam tin cut in half.
It's pure Australian magic, the Bush Telegraph
Now Nora Reilly's daughter went to Melbourne for a spell.
After going out with Nicky Doyle it's prob'ly just as well.
Home's no place for a girl when her belly starts to swell.
You heard it on the Bush Telegraph.
Now Andy Reagan's famous temper went off like a bomb

When he heard his only daughter Kate got married to a bum.
His Siamese cat had kittens to a 'Whatawa' Ginger Tom.
You heard it on the Bush Telegraph.
Chorus
Now Hanrahan, God bless his soul, his chooks are off the lay.
He always reckoned they were good for 15 eggs a day;
And mostly double yolkers, he'd give them all away.
You heard it on the Bush Telegraph.
Who fronted at the court today, the judge won't let him drive
For clocking in at point 23 instead of point 05.
20 beers in two hours flat, won't keep a man alive.
You'll hear it on the Bush Telegraph.
Chorus
You heard it on the Bush Telegraph.
Yes, you'll hear it on the Bush Telegraph.
