Summer (Unplugged)

He pointed to the edge of the river

With a hand still shaking

"That's where the nightmare came"

“Bunya! Bunya!” the Aunties screamed

As the jarjums begin to run

"Nhinganha, quickly, to the tops of the trees"

They shot 'em down like leaves in autumn

So I go there in the summer, the summer

To pay my respects

And there's no headstone and where's our

'Lest we forget'

I'm reminded each summer, each summer

With that flag around your neck

That it was and it always will be

After the gun shots echoed down the valley

A young rider came

Under a possum skin on a dead mother's breast

A babe survived amongst the slain

So I go there in the summer, the summer

To pay my respects

And there's no headstone and where's our

'Lest we forget'

I'm reminded each summer, each summer

With that flag around your neck

That it was and it always will be

I could take you there this summer (This summer)

We could pay our respects

And there's no guilt bro, but although

This summer

You might need to jump the fence

And it's not for me to forgive

But God knows we can't forget

That is was and it always will be

That is was and it always will be

That is was and it always will be
