Out where the river broke 
The blood wood and the desert oak 
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels 
Steam in fourty-five degrees

    C

    G
To pay the rent, 
    D
to pay the share 

     D
The time has come 
   C
a fact's a fact

Four wheels scare the cockatoos 
From Kintyre East to Yuendemu 
The wetsren desert lives and 
Breathes in fourty-five degrees.
