When I left Easton in 83 For the land of opportunity
In my prime Feeling fine
Just passed out of university 21 and got myself a degree
I set my mind On a silver mine
Picked up a set of shoes Picked up a backwood juice
They called Bouldang Buck
Bouldang Buck
Spoken rich in a mining town I had friends that come from miles around
But it seemed A spectre's dream
But then my luck kinda seemed right out All my friends, they couldn't help me out
It sure felt strange Knowing you were named
So I took to drinking liquor Nothing feels so good in my quaker
Than Bouldang Buck
Bouldang Buck
Everybody in my mining town Turn away now when I come around
I'm a nut job man For a dollar in my hand
You are gentle and I can't see You don't like to see a man in need
I don't wanna steal But I need a meal
Thank you sir, you're mighty kind What's your name and I'll tell you mine
They call me Bouldang Buck
Bouldang Buck
Bouldang Buck
Bouldang Buck
Bouldang Buck
