Lyrics Nukkanya - Paul Kelly

Nukkanya

Outside the dogs are barking
And the morning sun is breaking through the trees
My heart is feeling heavy
As I listen to the moaning of the breeze
Nukkanya, baby, I really don’t want to leave
There’s a ticket in my pocket
But I’d toss it if I only had my way
And a suitcase in the hallway
I wish I could unpack it now and stay
Nukkanya, baby, I’m gonna be back some day
Nukkanya
Don’t it go to show what a man don’t know
Nukkanya
Nukkanya, baby, I really don’t want to go
My land was once a river
I hate to see it slowly bleeding dry
My love is like an eagle
And high across the valleys she will fly
Nukkanya, baby, I’ll see you by and by
Nukkanya
Don’t it go to show what a man don’t know
Nukkanya
Nukkanya, baby, I really don’t want to go
Nukkanya
Don’t it go to show what a man don’t know
Nukkanya
Nukkanya, baby, I really don’t want to go
Nukkanya
Nukkanya, baby, I really don’t want to go
Nukkanya, baby, I really don’t want to go…
