Campfire on the Road - John Williamson

作曲：John Williamson

Camping under the leopard wood

As the sun goes down and the fire is good

Cause I&apos ve managed to find myself some brigalow

And it wouldn&apos t be the same I know

Contemplating the fire glow

Without my darlin&apos out here on the road

Now it&apos s a very special thing

To hear the little crickets sing

And there&apos s no need to say another word

Just watch the campfire steal the show

And let the inner feelings flow

Release the tension out here on the road

We must never let &apos em take this life away

Old stock routes belong to one and all

Drovers dreamers all agree poets aborigines

We have a right to light a campfire on the road

Some people like a river bed

With river gums high overhead

Unroll the swag on a drift of river sand

But me I search for different sites

I&apos m not afraid of min min lights

And I welcome spirits out here on the road

And I welcome many signs I see

In a land that&apos s been so good to me

That lead me to the soul of inner man

And I can tell you there are days

I see the earth in different ways

That keep me searching out here on the road

We must never let &apos em take this life away

Old stock routes belong to one and all

Drovers dreamers all agree poets aborigines

We have a right to light a campfire on the road

Camping under the leopard wood

As the sun goes down and the fire is good

Cause I&apos ve managed to find myself some brigalow

And it wouldn&apos t be the same I know

Contemplating the fire glow

Without my darlin&apos out here on the road

We must never let &apos em take this life away

Old stock routes belong to one and all

Drovers dreamers all agree poets aborigines

We have a right to light a campfire on the road

We have a right to light a campfire on the road
