‘The Bush Takes Care Of Its Own’ is a heartfelt Australiana ballad written and recorded by Golden Guitar winning singer songwriter, Matt Scullion.
The track is the second single from Matt’s chart topping album ‘Nation Of Abbreviation’, which was produced by Matt at his recording studio in the Northern Tablelands of NSW. It was written on the Ukulele which features prominently throughout the song.
‘The Bush Takes Care Of Its Own’ captures not only the resilience of hardworking people in the bush, but the feeling of community spirit that is still alive and kicking in rural Australia.
People around here keep to themselves
They’d rather be left alone
But when there’s a problem, they’re happy to help
Cause The Bush Takes Care Of Its Own
