Biography:
Steve Forde was born in the regional farming centre of Cowra in 1977.
His parents were battlers with a dream of one day rising from the dust and hard work they endured to owning their own property and sinking deep, long-lasting roots. It was to this end that young Steve spent most of his early childhood moving from town to town across NSW with his family. Where there was good work to be had, that's where the family would go. It was in these early years that simple life philosophies were deeply ingrained into this young man.

It's not the kind of life most would want for their son
C
It's seen many a man come undone
G
And get stomped in the ground
And there's nothing that a clown
C
Can do when your time has come
D
But down the road with a little bit of luck

And a whole lot of try

There'll be a gold buckle waiting
D
At the end of the next ride
