Cold Chisel - Bow River lyrics

rate me

Listen now to the wind babe

Listen now to the rain

Feel that water lickin' at my feet again

I don't wanna see this town no more

Wastin' my days on a factory floor

First thing you know I'll be back in Bow River again

Anytime you want babe, you can come around

But only six days separates me and the great top end

I been working hard, tweleve hours a day

And the money I saved won't buy my youth again

Goin' for the heat babe, and a tropical rain

In a place where no man's puttin' on the dog for me

Waitin' on the weekend, set o' brand new tyres

And back in Bow River's just where I want to be

Listen now to the wind babe

Listen now to the rain

Feel that water lickin' at my feet again

I don't wanna see this town no more

Too many years made up my mind to go or stay

Right to my dying day

I don't wanna see another engine line

Too many years and I owe my mind

First set o' wheels headin' back Bow River again

First thing you know I'll be back in Bow River again

Got the motor runnin', got the rest of my days

Sold everything I owned for a song

So anytime you want babe, you can come around

But don't leave it too late you just might find me gone

Listen now to the wind babe . . .

I don't need the score

I'm goin' through the door

Gonna tell the man I don't want no more

Pick up a fast car and burn my name in the road

One week two week maybe even more

Piss all my money up against the damn wall

First thing you know I'll be back in Bow River again
