Dana Lyons Big Rolling Country
Hit the road at sunrise
Through the afternoon
You can't drive here at nighttime
You'll hit the kangaroo
And we're rolling
Got to keep on moving on
Through that big rolling country
Ever farther from my home
Cattle in the river
Cattle on the road
Cattle dead and bloated
Road train load is rolling
Got to keep on moving on
Through that big cattle country
Ever farther from my home
Deeper in the desert
Hear the dingo's howl
Hundred miles to water
Hundred miles an hour
And we're rolling
Got to keep on moving on
Through that big desert country
Ever farthеr from my home
I ask her why she's lеaving
She says, "You're never home
You're always out there wandering
It's the only home you know"
Johnny Cash and Orbison
Midnight Oil and Pride
Blasting on the tape deck
Take me to the other side
And we go rolling
Got to keep on moving on
Through that big country, country
Ever farther from my home
Barefoot on a red path
At the base of Uluru
I hear the ancients singing
And I recognize the tune
And we go rolling
Got to keep on moving on
Through that big open country
Ever farther from my home
