Bow River

Listen now to the wind, babe

Listen now to the rain

I feel that water lickin' at my feet again

I don't wanna see this town no more

Wastin' my days on a factory floor

The first thing you know, I'll be back in Bow River again

Anytime you want, babe

You can come around

But only six days separates me and the great Top End

I've been workin' hard

Twelve hours a day

And the money I saved won't buy my youth again

I'm going for the heat wave

And the tropical rain

In a place where no man's puttin' on the dog for me

I'm waitin' on a weekend

Set of brand new tires

And back in Bow River, just where I wanna be

Oh, listen now to the wind, babe

Listen now to the rain

Feel that water lickin' at my feet again

I don't wanna see this town no more

Too many years made up my mind to go or stay

Right to my dying day

I don't wanna see another engine line

Too many years that I owe my mind

A fresh set of wheels, headin' back Bow River again

The first thing you know, I'll be back in Bow River again

Yeah, yeah

I got the motor runnin'

I got the rest of my days

Sold everything I own for just a song

So anytime you want me

You can come around

But don't leave here too late, you just might find me gone

Oh, listen now to the wind, babe

Listen now to the rain

I feel that water lickin' at my feet again

I don't wanna see this town no more

Too many years made up my mind to go or stay

Right to my dying day

I don't wanna see another engine line

Too many years that I owe my mind

A fresh set of wheels, headin' back Bow River again

I don't need the score, I'm going through the door

I'm gonna tell the man, I don't want him no more

Pick up a fast car and burn my name in the road

One week, two week, maybe even more

I'll piss all my money up against the damn wall

First thing you know, I'll be back in Bow River again

The first thing you know, I'll be back in Bow River again

The first thing you know, I'll be back in Bow River again
