WAY OUT WEST

Way out west where the rain don't fall
Got a job with a company drilling for oil
Just to make some bread
Living and a-working on the land

I quit my job and I left my wife
I headed out west for a brand new life
Just to get away
Living and a-working on the land

The work is hard but the pay is good
And I'd take me a rest if I only could
Cos it's hot out here
Living and a-working on the land

They give you a house made of fibro cement
Don't need no money cos you don't have no rent
Yeah it's all so cheap
Living and a-working on the land

What a change it's been
From working that nine to five
How strange it's been
At last I get the feeling that I'm really alive

Nothing much to do on a Saturday night
Than to get into some booze or maybe a fight
'Cos it's tough out here
Living and a-working on the land

Way out west where the rain don't fall
Got a job with a company drilling for oil
And I ain't gonna leave
Living and a-working on the land
