Kickin' past the dealers on the edge of town, 
 
Saw a lot of pretty pickups, not a Ute to be found. 
                                 D  
Twim cam Jap fours, a bloke'd be nuts. 
          A                   
Give me a six or an eight, a four wheel mate. 
                               E 
The dents and the dust and the grasshopper guts. 
 
 
          D                          A  
She's got holes in the muffler and a gear-box clunk, 
     D                           A 
I've cursed her and called her a piece of old junk. 
         D                       A          F#m 
When the work's been done at the end of the day, 
A7                               
She's my Ute, I'll keep it that way. 
                       E       A      D  A  E  A 
She's my Ute and she's here to stay.

You can see them blow-ins in their four by fours, 
 
Jumpin' up and down 'bout a scratch on the door. 
                              D 
But I've got a yarn for every dent, 
  A             
A big red roo, pig or two, 
                        E 
A hole in the roof that Col shot through.

Well I had a girl but she laid down the law, 
 
She said 'You can't keep that dirty old Ute anymore'. 
                                       D 
There comes a point when a man's gotta choose, 
       A 
Well I told her straight, I'll stick with my mate. 
                               E 
She's been gone a year but the Ute's still here.
