Gunbarrel Highway Testo

I'll give you something to write home aboutAnd I'll take you somewhere, show you aroundWe bunrt all cars that laid down and diedWe burnt all the trees to keep us aliveSat 'round a fire, sang like a choirWith the ashes of civilisation in our eyesI come alive, I read the signs on the Gunbarrel HighwayFar of a dull radio beats for the young uninvolvedThe meaning's a footballA slick and a can and a Kakadu manWill the speaker speak up or the talker talk downThe world is no oyster and here in this townShit falls like rain on a world that is brownI come alive, I read the signs on the Gunbarrel HighwayI come alive, and the children will sing as theSatellite swings down that highwayNothing could be longer than a corrugated roadNo one ever follows where the road trains goAnd nowhere in the country do the dust storms blow so hardSo hardI come alive, I read the signs on the Gunbarrel HighwayI hear the sound, it's the wheels as they driveAnd the cultures collide on that highwayAh, it's a hard day, the children will sing as theSatellite swings down that highway
