- Written by Eric Bogle and sung here by Jim Brannigan, The Cocky Song tells the life story of a Scottish immigrant who settled in Australia's outback. Like many of Eric Bogle's works, it speaks to the harsh realities of life. In this case, the farmers who scraped a meager existence off the sparse, scorched earth that is Australia's outback.
At the time this song was written (1976) the price of beef was so low that cattle ranchers were forced to drive their cattle into mass graves. They simply could not afford to transport them to the abattoirs
and yet I as a young man, living on minimum wage could easily afford to eat steak on a daily basis.
The story of irish and Scottish tough settlers ,hard times

Great stuff, Jim!
I wish you would have a go at the old Corries song ‘The Hills of Ardmorn”. I think you have the voice for it.
Great job Jim as always :)
