But the best feed I have eaten has been out in the scrub
You can have your fancy dishes of egg and bacon rolls,
But the feed that I love best of all are ribs cooked on the coals.
When a beast is killed at sundown in drovers style you see
The cook calls out to all the boys, "What would you like for tea?
A Curry or some damper or salt beef casserole?"
But they prefer their fav'rite of ribs cooked on the coals
In the mustering camps of Queensland when they decide to kill
They always take the rib bones back to the camp to grill
And if you think I'm braggin', ask a stockman young or old,
The best feed they have eaten, They'll say "Ribs cooked on the coals."
And when you're watching cattle on a freezing winter's night,
You see again those rib bones, Oh, What a lovely sight
Your mouth begins to water, but drys up when you're told
"Salt junk is all that's leftr to eat, no ribs cooked on the coals."

A new chum at the station, hadn't tried the ribs before,
We dropped a beast at evening, but the boys were rather sore.
They all took to the new chum and they cursed his hungry soul
Both sides of beef he polished off, when cooked upon the coals.
A piece of salted brisket, is always good to chew,
Or steak from off the shoulder with a slice of damper too
Rump steak is nice and tender, but the undercut is prime.
I Love them all but give to me, those rib bones ev'ry time.
I've had some fancy menues at cafe's and at pubs
But the best feed I have eaten has been out in the scrub
You can have your fancy dishes of egg and bacon rolls,
But the feed that I love best of all are ribs cooked on the coals.
