[Verse]
He woke up with a croak in his throat
A kangaroo court in his head afloat
Sunrise biting like a dingo's might
Flu hit hard like a bar room fight
[Verse 2]
Noonday heat pounding on his door
Stumbled out felt the fever roar
Made it to the loo with a tragic blunder
Echoes of his guts began to thunder
[Chorus]
Oh the outback blues they got him good
Sweatin' in the shade where a gumtree stood
Flies buzzin' round with a wicked song
Outback blues all day long
[Verse 3]
Laid on the sofa with a dusty sigh
Dreamin' of a time he'd want to fly
A boomerang spinning in his fevered mind
Hoping for a breeze he couldn't find
[Bridge]
Water ran thin from the rain tank low
Knew he had to fight this desert show
A kookaburra laughin' at his plight
Outback blues they hold on tight
[Chorus]
Oh the outback blues they got him good
Sweatin' in the shade where a gumtree stood
Flies buzzin' round with a wicked song
Outback blues all day long [Bridge]
Water ran thin from the rain tank low
Knew he had to fight this desert show
A kookaburra laughin' at his plight
Outback blues they hold on tight
Outback blues all day long |
