Bow River Songtext
von Cold Chisel

Listen now to the wind babe
And listen now to the rain
You know I feel that water lickin′ at my feet again
And I don't wanna see this town no more
Wasting my days on a factory floor
The first thing you know, I′ll be back in Bow River
The first thing you know, I will be back in Bow River
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 from the great top end
I been working hard, twelve hours a day
The money I save won't buy my youth again
I′m going for the heat babe, and a tropical rain
In a place where no man′s puttin' on the dog for me
Waitin′ on the weekend, set o' brand new tyres
I′m back in Bow River, just where I want to be, yeah


Oh, listen now to the wind babe
Listen now to the rain
I feel that water licking 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 and I owe my mind
First set o' wheels headin' back to Bow River again
The first thing you know I′ll be back in Bow River again, hey

I got the motor running, I got the rest of my days
I sold everything I owned for just a song
So anytime you want babe, you can come around
But don′t leave it too late you just might find me gone

Oh listen now to the wind babe
Listen now to the rain
I feel that water licking 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 and I owe my mind
First set o' wheels headin′ back to Bow River again


I don't need the score
I′m walking out the door
I'm gonna tell the man I don't want no more
Pick up a fast car, burn my name in the road
One week, two week, maybe even more
Piss all my money up against the damn wall
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
The first thing you know I'll be, back in Bow River, again
Oh yeah, oh yeah

Thank you
