We were both 18 the year we met I was slighty older but not by One at you and I knew that was it And your voice sounded an angel above
One at me you thought I was odd Wearing those clothes in the heat boots, cowboy hat, flannelette And denim all the way down to my feet
When your sister me to join up with you You nearly fainted shock but you hid it well the hell are you doing? you when I left I was singing all the way to my hotel
Headed off from Travelled the Kimberley Derby, Fitzroy, a in Halls Creek Wyndham, Kunnunrra, Darwin we stayed for a Then we hit the coast near on the other side Christmas in didn't have nowhere to go Busking on the streets to get a feed Being kept up all by the lovers on the top bunk At a seedy backpackers Rapture of the Deep
Now plenty has happened since those early Met a lot of people, a lot of places a night in friends and relatives beds And God bless the lot of you put us up and fed us Played to of thousands, played to one or two in festivals and pubs, loved and hated what we do but looking back now I wouldn't but one of the memories we've made in the last eight and though there were times we didn't get I can say I love the both of you
Now you're living in Sydney in dingy room In a house full of on Ramsgate avenue Paying twice as much as the damn things worth Working in the daytime just to it though You got your arms to your elbows in the at some Place pots and pans, cups and saucers, Knives and and plates It's a far cry, from the life we knew Travelling around the in a campervan Playing songs, with your sister and you It's too to go back there again
