G What am I doing here? C G On the banks of the Diamantina C G Am D Where only skinny dingoes and horny lizards go G The moon is loud and clear C G Like the notes on the concertina C G C D G I'll play another drovin' song the white owl wouldn't know C G C G Forty years been drovin', no woman by my side C G Am D No one gives me orders on this dusty road I ride C G C G But the sun can sure get angry as it burns you from the ground C G C D G One day those skinny dingoes can drag my bones around
G C G Channel country, gibber plains, tablelands I know C G Am D And then there's gentle sand dunes where little Mallees grow G C G There's a friendly campfire everywhere I go C G C D G I'll play another drovin' song the white owl wouldn't know C G C G Forty years been drovin', no woman by my side C G Am D No one gives me orders on this dusty road I ride C G C G But the sun can sure get angry as it burns you from the ground C G C D G One day those skinny dingoes can drag my bones around G C G So see you later Birdsville, you're far too flash for me C G Am D While the beer was cold and yummy from here it's Billy Tea G C G The mob is keen on movin' and that sounds good to me C G Am D G Good feed they reckon southbound, we're heading for Marree C G C G Forty years been drovin', no woman by my side C G Am D No one gives me orders on this dusty road I ride C G C G But the sun can sure get angry as it burns you from the ground C G C D G One day those skinny dingoes can drag my bones around C G C G Forty years been drovin', no woman by my side C G Am D No one gives me orders on this dusty road I ride C G C G But the flies can drive you crazy and the wind can get you down C G C D G But you won't find me lingerin' or hanging round this town CORDS BY CK
