Night-time i stage my street show

Love for the money that's my cash flow

No i don't get scared when i walk alone

I have been on this beat enough to know

That when shit happens it is just your turn

So you deal with it and it happens everyday

I don't know quite where i belong

So when they come i freely give myself away

Walkabout - a very different kind

Walkabout - a very different place and time

I stand underneath street lights dreaming of the moon

It is rising in a desert a life i never know

Taken away and now i'm walking by myself

When you grow up in institutions

You make your friends but love you never know

So when i found my blood ran from the desert

I knew it was somewhere i had to go

I went to the people there

I lost and found myself on either side

Something deep down just don't feel right

So i walk about this country

And i walk about these streets to find where my heart lies.
