Walkabout Fire

[Didgeridoo solo] [Intro] Red dust on me feet Smoke stain on me teeth Old blokes by the flame Say "Go ’Member ya name" [Verse 1] Sun bites down Sky feels like a stone Tracks like tangled stories I follow ’em alone Snake track in the sand Sharp hiss in the heat Spider in the ’ollow log I ’ear me own ’eartbeat (oh yeah) [Thunder SFX] [Chorus] I walk I walkabout Till the fear falls out Till the land talks back Till I know me path I walk I walkabout Hear me own soul shout If the land lets me stand I come home a man [Verse 2] Yella eyes at twilight Dingo on the ridge Crocs in the still dark water I edge along the bridge Wallaby in the spinifex Bolts when I draw near Everythin’ that runs or strikes Teaches me me fear (hey!) [Thunder SFX] [Chorus] I walk I walkabout Till the fear falls out Till the land talks back Till I know me path I walk I walkabout Hear me own soul shout If the land lets me stand I come home a man [Bridge] Old song in me bones now Old names in me breath I see me shadow in the stars I sit an’ speak to death If I leave this desert boy Or leave it somethin’ more Only country Only country Shows me what I’m for [Thunder SFX] [Final Chorus] I walk I walkabout Till the fear falls out Till the land talks back Till I know me path I walk I walkabout Hear me own soul shout If the land lets me stand I come home a man [Outro] I come home a man! I come home a man!
