Some men climb mountains just to test their soul Other men dig down in the ground looking for buried gold Some men go diving and never come up for air I'm a climber, I'm a miner, I'm a diver for her Because she's rare Down at the track they're all standing in line Out on the oval it's just three-quarter time Inside the ring all you hear is a dull roar I'm a gambler, I'm a player, I'm a fighter for her Because she's rare, she's rare There's a man with a gun on the lake before daylight
Another man dressed in black creeping round your door last night And a man with a rod sitting on the end of the pier I'm a hunter, I'm a thief, I'm a fisherman for her Because she's rare, she's rare Outside in the alley I can hear the deal go down Over in the park another bottle's going round Somebody's in trouble 'cause they can't cough up their share I'm hanging out, I'm thirsty, I'm raging for her Because she's rare, she's rare, so rare
