[edit]
When you saddle your horse in youth’s stockyard
Look well, look well to your gear
For the road you travel is long and hard
And its length is fenced with fear

And if you launch your way with your girths left loose
You are facing tremendous odds
And you’re giving the devil a grand excuse
And asking a toss from the gods

And if you don’t sit straight as a lifted lance
If you ride with the rein too slack
Life, the bucker, will seize his chance
And soon get rid of his pack

And if you don’t beware of the Gilgai holes
Find more similar lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.com/NPZvAnd the bog so often found
And the clutching boughs the crooked bowls
You will someday, hit the ground

So, see that the that the bit that holds you straight
Is wrought of a stainless steel
And the spur of ambition that rules your gate
Is hung on a careful heel

And then through the stockyards’ open rails
Where the waiting world lies wide
Like a peerless knight of the ancient tales
Ride out, as the best men ride

From his album: “Singer From Down Under”
Transcribed: Marten Busstra & Barcoo Bill
