Pastel red to burgundy and spinifex to gold We've just come out of the Mulga where the plains forever roll And Albert Namatjira has painted all the scenes And a shower has changed the lustre of our land And it's raining on the Rock In a beautiful country And I'm proud to travel this big land As an Aborigine And it's raining on the Rock What an almighty sight to see And I'm wishing and I'm dreaming that you were here with me Everlasting daisies and a beautiful desert rose Where does their beauty come from heaven knows I could ask the wedge-tail but he's away too high I wonder if he understands it's wonderful to fly It cannot be described with a picture The mesmerising colours of the Olgas Or the grandeur of the Rock Uluru has power! And it's raining on the Rock In a beautiful country And I'm proud to travel this big land As an Aborigine And it's raining on the Rock What an almighty sight to see And I'm wishing and I'm dreaming that you were here with me
