1. Caught the train to Cootamundra
Headed over to the waiting bus
Twenty minutes to stretch the legs
When this bloke rides up to us
Twelve speed pushbike, kung-fu jacket
The kiosk girl said, "Here comes Chook."
Chorus
You can see him 'round Coota on the old pushbike
With the B-double trailers and the CB mike
The locals grin and look and say
"Here comes Chook."
2. I wandered up, made his acquaintance
He pushed his glasses up on his nose
He kicked the tyres on his six-wheeled pushbike
And rubbed his aching toes
"Got a flat. Flamin' catheads."
He pulled a shifter from a box.
Chorus
3. While Chook was busy I got a coffee
Asked the bussies to fill me in
Jethro from the big white coach
Gave a crooked grin
"Chook meets the busses. Picks up rubbish.
Does Tae Kwon Do on the station lawn."
Chorus
4. Time was up, my bus was going
Chook said he was running late
As we pulled out Chook was chatting
On truckies' channel eight
Cootamundra - Bradman's Birthplace
Wattle Town and Home of Chook
Chorus
