[Verse 1]
I was born in the bush
Near old Alice Springs
As far as you get from the sea
My mother was a fighter
My daddy was too
He never knew a bastard like me
My brothers and sisters scattered like the wind
From the desert and the hills to the sea
Much too young, many died
But I have survived
So lucky a bastard like me
[Refrain]
So lucky a bastard like me
I have survived a hell of a ride
Nobody knows a bastard like me
[Verse 2]
Call me a stray
A dog every day
Call me a mongrel half-breed
And mongrels are strong
So if you take me on
Better watch out for a bastard like me
I was born in the bush
Near old Alice Springs
As far as you get from the sea
My mother was a fighter
My daddy was too
He never knew a bastard like me
My brothers and sisters scattered like the wind
From the desert and the hills to the sea
Much too young, many died
But I have survived
So lucky a bastard like me
[Refrain]
So lucky a bastard like me
I have survived a hell of a ride
Nobody knows a bastard like me
[Verse 2]
Call me a stray
A dog every day
Call me a mongrel half-breed
And mongrels are strong
So if you take me on
Better watch out for a bastard like me
