The Diamantina Drover
The faces in the photograph are fadedAnd I can't believe he looks so much like meFor it's been ten long years todaySince I left for Old Cork StationSaying "I won't be back 'till the droving's done"CHORUSFor the rain never falls on the dusty DiamantinaThe drover finds it hard to change his mindFor the years have surely goneLike the drays from Old Cork StationAnd I won't be back 'till the droving's doneIt seems like the sun comes up each morningSets me up and then takes it all awayFor the dreaming by the lightOf the campfire at nightEnds with the burning light of dayCHORUSELECTRIC GUITAR BREAK (VERSE + CHORUS)I sometimes think I'll settle back in SydneyBut it's been so long and it's hard to change your mindFor the cattle trail goes on and onAnd fences roll foreverAnd I won't be back when the droving's done.CHORUS
