Music and Jams,
Bulls and Biscuits,
Crafts and Cattle,
Sheep and Shortbread,
Bought before the Stuart's gaze,
Stock and Produce, Craft Displays,
It's a day when people have a go,
It's a local district show.
Kubras, Moleskins, Ties and Tinnies,
Trade and Pleasure,
Booze and business,
all the experts round the bar
Will tell you where the
best sheep are
From Mumblebone or Old Ash Rose
You'll find a man who knows
Once a year from all around
They all converge on the showground
Some just look, some compete
For some it's just a chance to meet
The kids will walk you off your feet
But everyone will go
To the local district show
Dagwood Dogs, Chips and Children,
Sideshow Alley, Shams and Shooting,
Red Nose Blokes and Shabby Prize,
Kiosk Girl with Hard Dark Eyes.
Tomorrow they'll be on the go,
it's just another show.
Once a year from all around,
they all converge on the showground.
Some just look, some compete,
for some it's just a chance to meet.
The kids will walk you off your feet
But everyone will go
to the local district show
Sprays and presses, dips and demos,
score a bargain
Says the sales rep,
a brand new tank to fit your need
Special deals on wire or feed
They'll tell you it's all price to go,
only at the show
Once a year from all around,
they all converge on the showground.
Some just look, some compete,
some it's just a chance to meet.
The kids'll walk you off your feet,
but everyone'll go
to the local district show.
Sailor three, bids and buyers,
spotters stand, hold the hammer.
The auctioneer,
he spits and roars for a twenty -five,
these rams are yours.
The bits fly quickly to and fro
when they auction at the show
Once a year, from all around,
they all converge on the showground
Some just look, some compete,
for some it's just a chance to meet
The kids'll walk you off your feet,
but everyone'll go
To the local district show you
