WAY OUT WEST WHERE THE
RAIN DON'T FALL
GOT A JOB WITH A COMPANY
DRILLING FOR OIL
JUST TO MAKE SOME CHANGE
LIVING AND A WORKING
ON THE LAND
l QUIT MY JOB AND l LEFT
MY WIFE
HEADED OUT WEST FOR A
BRAND NEW LIFE
JUST TO GET AWAY LIVING AND
A WORKING ON THE LAND
THE WORK IS HARD
BUT THE PAY IS GOOD
AND I'D TAKE ME A REST
IF I ONLY COULD
COS IT'S HOT OUT HERE, LIVING
AND A WORKING ON THE LAND
THEY GIVE YOU A HOUSE
MADE OF FIBRE CEMENT
YOU DON'T NEED NO MONEY
COS YOU DON'T HAVE NO RENT
YES IT'S ALL SO CHEAP, LIVING
AND A WORKING ON THE LAND
WHAT A CHANGE IT'S BEEN
FROM WORKING THAT
NINE TILL FIVE
HOW STRANGE ITS BEEN
AT LAST I GET THE FEELING
THAT I'M REALLY ALIVE
NOTHING MUCH TO DO
ON A SATURDAY NIGHT
YOU GET INTO SOME BOOZE,
OR MAYBE A FIGHT
COS IT'S TOUGH OUT HERE
LIVING AND WORKING
ON THE LAND
WAY OUT WEST
WHERE THE RAIN DON'T FALL
GOT A JOB WITH A COMPANY
DRILLING FOR OIL
AND I AIN'T GONNA LEAVE,
LIVING AND A WORKING
ON THE LAND
LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA, LIVING AND
A WORKING ON THE LAND
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

A WORKING ON THE LAND
