My Country Side

Well Dan was a man He'd grown up on the land Till he left For another way of life He got a plum job Saved a few bob Set himself up with a city bride Well they dressed up flash And they hit all the traps But he knew he wasn't satisfied Told his wife one day I'll have to go away I can't change my countryside Cause there's a shack on the flat and it's a way outback Where a campfire's burning bright If you come with me I'll show you how to be At home in the countryside Now Farmer Brown Left for the town Cause the drought and the costs had crippled him Well it's hard to adjust But you can if you must That's what he told his country friends But even then his life felt thin He knew he wasn't satisfied Closed his eyes at night Hoping that he might Wake up in the countryside Cause there's a shack on the flat and it's a way outback Where a campfire's burning bright If you come with me I'll show you how to be At home in the countryside At home in the countryside All right! Even then his life felt thin He knew he wasn't satisfied Closed his eyes at night Hoping that he might Wake up in the countryside Cause there's a shack on the flat and it's a way outback Where a campfire's burning bright If you come with me I'll show you how to be At home in the countryside Well the moon's off the ridge Over a creek bed camp The gumtrees are calling me tonight There's a place I know Where we all will go When we're back in the countryside When we're back... in the countryside
