James Reyne - Walking In The Dreamtime lyrics

Went a'walking in the sunshine About a thousand Brumby ghosts Hunters bushmen bandits And fence wire on the posts Felt that ebony skin And felt the whole of the ivory coast Not flying away flying away Never been across the ocean man You didn't sail it out across the sea You didn't dig it for gold In a little black hole Of all the things to be You've got Summer light freckles You didn't need your ABC Not flying away flying away Chorus ~ Oh I walking in the dreamtime The dreamtime Oh I walking in the sun Now your lying in a door way brother Land of black fatigue You say we braved the ocean We crossed ten thousand leagues You all stung the lashes Of a hundred Captain Queegues Not flying away flying away Cut the name across your backbone Stretch the skin across the drum Set 'em up in some old island Today 'till kingdom come Stole that pinch gut pudding Covered it with rum Not flying away flying away Chorus ~ x 2 Walking in the sun Bridge ~ Spirits in the sky Watch them roll by Look & listen Not flying away Flying away
