Way Out West (1977)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Way out west where the rain don't fall Got a job with a company drilling for oil Just to make some change Living and working on the land I quit my job and I left my wife I headed out west for a brand new life Just to get away Living and working on the land [Verse 2] The work is hard but the pay is good And I'd take me a rest if I only could 'Cause it's hot out here Living and working on the land They give you a house made of fibrocement You don't have no worries 'bout paying the rent Yeah, it's oh so cheap Living and working on the land [Bridge] Oh, what a change it's been From working that nine to five Oh, how strangе it's been At last I get the feeling that I'm really alivе [Verse 3] Nothing much to do on a Saturday night But get into some booze or maybe a fight 'Cause it's tough out here Living and working on the land Way out west where the rain don't fall Got a job with a company drilling for oil And I ain't gonna leave Living and working on the land
