Sail the Nullarbor Songtext
von John Williamson
Sail the Nullarbor Songtext
Now I could spend my holidays on videos galore
Or lie on the beach getting sorry and sore
Or I could sail the ocean and see another foreign shore
Well I took my little kelpie and I sailed the nullabor
And I saw the colour changes from Albany to Broome
A pair of white corellas singing out a tune
Wildflowers in bloom
And I saw the rusty hamersley's from a dusty Wittenoom
And saw the giant Karri's oh
You couldn't paint the view
Amazing what cross cut can do
I would've liked to be there before, would you?
And I heard about the whales and cried
Many thousands died
But they're swimming back to sing
I bet you never heard a more beautiful thing
And through the Swan Valley there's Banksias
And warriors making a stand
Yeah look out for Black Boys
Like guardians protecting this dear old land
Spinefex and Snappy Gums
Hazy green blue grey
You gotta go that way
There nearly half Australia over there in WA
Well I saw the colours changing from Albany to Broome
A pair of white corellas singing out a tune
Wildflowers in bloom
And I saw the rusty hamersley's from a dusty Wittenoom
So you could spend your holidays on videos
Or lie on the beach getting sore
Or you could sail the ocean
Why don't you take your best mate and sail the Nullabor
Why don't you take your best mate and sail the Nullabor, hey!
Or lie on the beach getting sorry and sore
Or I could sail the ocean and see another foreign shore
Well I took my little kelpie and I sailed the nullabor
And I saw the colour changes from Albany to Broome
A pair of white corellas singing out a tune
Wildflowers in bloom
And I saw the rusty hamersley's from a dusty Wittenoom
And saw the giant Karri's oh
You couldn't paint the view
Amazing what cross cut can do
I would've liked to be there before, would you?
And I heard about the whales and cried
Many thousands died
But they're swimming back to sing
I bet you never heard a more beautiful thing
And through the Swan Valley there's Banksias
And warriors making a stand
Yeah look out for Black Boys
Like guardians protecting this dear old land
Spinefex and Snappy Gums
Hazy green blue grey
You gotta go that way
There nearly half Australia over there in WA
Well I saw the colours changing from Albany to Broome
A pair of white corellas singing out a tune
Wildflowers in bloom
And I saw the rusty hamersley's from a dusty Wittenoom
So you could spend your holidays on videos
Or lie on the beach getting sore
Or you could sail the ocean
Why don't you take your best mate and sail the Nullabor
Why don't you take your best mate and sail the Nullabor, hey!
