Desert Man, Desert Woman |
Wangkatjikitjana ngayunya |
Wantikatinytja |
Mungatuna tjina anu |
Ngayunya wantikatingu |
Alice springala |
Kana tjina anungurakutu |
If you go out as far as you can |
You will find the desert man |
Family bound and ancient |
Born of the earth the dust his blanket |
Tell you the story of the bird in the sky |
Laid some eggs for as many stars to fly |
It’s light years from Westfield camping on the track |
Moving along in the great outback |
You’re going to see him |
You’re going to see him |
Moving along in the great outback |
Wati paluru, Wati putitja |
Wati paluru, Wati putitja |
Winking, spitting and sparkling lights |
Cars are screaming at traffic lights |
Sirens sound at suburban dawn |
I can see a gnome on your front lawn |
You’re going to see him |
You’re going to see him |
Moving along in the great outback |
Moving along in the great outback |
Moving along in the great outback |
