Back On Country

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The wedge-tailed eagle circles high Its spirit, it is free Since I grew up, he's followed close Wherever I may be I feel the wind across my face And touch it with my hand No matter what your bloodlines We belong to this land Yeah [Verse 2] You might be black, you could be white But come and join the choir This feeling in your belly means You're welcome at this fire So many generations Between us we can trace Flow away like a river Down to our dreamin' place [Chorus] Back on country Back on country, yeah [Verse 3] Your country might be a family farm North Queensland patch of dirt Or Kings Street in Newtown Where they tucked away the hurt Patient stories, different worlds Of love, hate, and fear With a single dream, how many tribes All come together here? [Chorus] Back on country Back on country, yeah [Bridge] It's a living thing, a giving thing Older than time This land, it owes us nothing It's not yours or mine So when the weight of the world Is crowdin' up your head Come and lose yourself Maybe find yourself [Chorus] Back on country Back on country, yeah [Outro] Yeah, back Back on country, yeah Find yourself on country Back on country, yeah
