Out where the river broke

The blood wood and the desert oak

Holden wrecks and boilin' diesels

Steam in forty-five degrees

The time has come to say fair's fair

To pay the rent, to pay our share

The time has come, a fact's a fact

It belongs to them, let's give it back

How can we dance when our earth is turnin'?

How do we sleep while our beds are burnin'?

How can we dance when our earth is turnin'?

How do we sleep while our beds are burnin'?

The time has come to say fair's fair

To pay the rent now, to pay our share

Four wheels scare the cockatoos

From Kintore, east to Yuendemu

The Western Desert lives and breathes

In forty-five degrees

The time has come to say fair's fair

To pay the rent, to pay our share

The time has come, a fact's a fact

It belongs to them, let's give it back

How can we dance when our earth is turnin'?

How do we sleep while our beds are burnin'?

How can we dance when our earth is turnin'?

How do we sleep while our beds are burnin'?

The time has come to say fair's fair

To pay the rent now, to pay our share

The time has come, a fact's a fact

It belongs to them, let's give it back

How can we dance when our earth is turnin'?

How do we sleep while our beds are burnin'?
