Biografía:
Slim es sin duda el músico australiano más prolífico, con más de 5 millones discos vendidos en Australia. "Forward Looking Back", editado el año 2000, hace el numero 100 de su carrera.
David Gordon Kirkpatrick se crió en una granja lechera de las colinas de Kempsey (Nueva Gales del Sur), y ya a la edad de 10 años tenía el sueño de ser músico. Tras seis décadas de de carrera ha llegado a ser uno de los intérpretes de música country más importantes fuera de los EE.UU.

CAPO 4 (I'm pretty sure that's how Slim played it)
[Intro Chords]
D C G D
D
I'm a ringer from the top end
A
Where ya gotta know your job
And what you're doin' each day
On 2 million acres you bet
D
Ya have to earn your pay
If ya wanna take it on
G Em
There's one thing that shouldn't be forgotten
G A
Nobody can do the job
D
Like a ringer from the top end
A
Out on the fence line swallowing dust
E
Blood on my hands from the barb
Hoping that rogue bull won't see the hole
A
Before they get him in the yard
D
But I get a funny feeling in the middle of my back
G Em
Sure enough he's coming like a train down the track
G A
That's when nobody else moves faster
D
Than the springer from the top end
D
I'm a ringer from the top end
A
Where ya gotta muster 3 thousand head in a day
D
Move 'em to the yards and water them at end of day
It's not the sort of job you'd take
G Em
If you're looking for a soft one
G A
But ya take a kinda pride in saying
D
I'm a ringer from the top end
A
Well I roll out my swag 'neath the boab tree
E
And then I'm out like a light
Dreaming about those girls in town
A
Next thing it's broad daylight
D
No time to dream of what might have been
G Em
I'm in a dirty bull catcher with the mustering team
G A
I better keep my mind on the job
D
'Cause I'm a ringer from the top end
G A
And nobody does the job better
D
Than a ringer from the top end
