Fitzroy Crossing

I'm going back to Fitzroy Gonna build me self A bridge Something that's a little bit More sturdy A little bit more Ridgy Didge Am going back to Fitzroy An hang out With old Jack In the shade of a Boab And watch As he paints With a twig Am going back to Fitzroy Check on the River and Hill people Plains people Desert people The people Who just want A Voice Am going back to Fitzroy An stir up an old Pigeon I might find him Out near Geikie Gorge Or hiding In Tunnel creek Am going back to Fitzroy Just to bask In its expanse Those distant Shimmering hills By day Those distant Shimmering stars By night Come with me Back to Fitzroy And help To build a bridge With these Peoples
