Backroad Nation

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's road train dust on a Bulloo track It's canefields getting lit It's combine lights before the dawn It's an Uluru sunset It's forty thousand years of dreaming The heartland keeps on beating [Chorus] That's us flying down an old dirt road That's us driving through fields of gold Getting high on a country station Rollin' through this backroad nation That's us and I got you next to me Right here is where I wanna be We got a good vibration Livin' in this backroad nation [Verse 2] It's wild and free it's a saltbush sea It's pink galahs in flight It's out of town it's a tailgate down It's a campfire in the night A way of life, it's the life we're living As long as this big world keeps spinning [Chorus] That's us flying down an old dirt road That's us driving through fields of gold Getting high on a country station Rollin' through this backroad nation That's us and I got you next to me Right here is where I wanna be We got a good vibration Livin' in this backroad nation [Verse 3] It's unsung towns and ancient ground A road that never ends It's the homeland song that when you're gone Calls you home again [Chorus] That's us flying down an old dirt road That's us driving through fields of gold Getting high on a country station Rollin' through this backroad nation That's us and I got you next to me Right here is where I wanna be We got a good vibration Livin' in this backroad nation [Outro] It's a backroad nation It's a backroad nation
