[Verse]
The sky's been cryin' for days on end,
In Far North Queensland, my dear friend.
The lawns have turned into a lake,
Barbecue's drenched, feels like a mistake.
[Verse 2]
The rain won't stop, it's a constant pour,
Pounding on the tin roof, what a bore.
The pool's rooted, can't take no more,
The garden's washed away, to the distant shore.
[Chorus]
It's floodin' now, water everywhere,
Gutters overflowing, we got no repair.
When will it end? We can only guess,
Country life soaked in this watery mess.
[Verse 3]
Boots are mud-caked from walkin' 'round,
Everywhere you step, you sink right down.
The driveway's vanished, paths all gone,
Another day of rain from dusk till dawn.
[Bridge]
The neighbors shout, "We're all in this!"
Wading through water, sealed with a kiss.
We'll make it through, like we always do,
But Lord, it'd be nice to see skies of blue.
[Chorus]
It's floodin' now, water everywhere,
Gutters overflowing, we got no repair.
When will it end? We can only guess,
Country life soaked in this watery mess. |
