Listen now to
the wind babe
Listen now to the rain
Feel that water lickin'
at my feet again
I don't wanna see
this town no more
Wastin' my days
on a factory floor
First thing you know
I'll be back in
Bow River again
Anytime you want babe,
you can come around
But only six days
separates me and
the great top end
I been working hard,
twelve hours a day
And the money I saved
won't buy
my youth again
Goin' for the heat babe
and a tropical rain
In a place where
no man's puttin' on
the dog for me
Waitin' on
the weekend
Set o' brand
new tyres
And back in Bow River's
just where I want to be
Listen now to
the wind babe
Listen now
to the rain
Feel that water lickin'
at my feet again
I don't wanna see
this town no more
Too many years
made up my mind
to go or stay
right to my dying day
I don't wanna see
another engine line
Too many years and
I owe my mind
First set o' wheels
headin' back to
Bow River again
First thing you know
I'll be back in
Bow River again
Got the motor runnin'
Got the rest of my days
Sold everything I
owned for just a song
So anytime
you want babe,
you can come around
But don't leave it
too late
You just might
find me gone
Oh listen now to
the wind babe
Listen now
to the rain
Feel that water lickin'
at my feet again
I don't wanna see
this town no more
Too many years
made up my mind
to go or stay
right to my dying day
I don't wanna see
another engine line
Too many years and
I owe my mind
First set o' wheels
headin' back
Bow River again
I don't need the score
I'm goin' through
the door
Gonna tell the man
I don't want no more
Pick up a fast car
and burn my name
in the road
One week
two week
maybe even more
P**s all my money up
against the damn wall
First thing you know
I'll be back in
Bow River again
First thing you know
I'll be back in
Bow River again
First thing you know
I'll be back in
Bow River again
