Lyrics Back on country Troy Cassar-Daley

 606

Back on country


The wedge-tailed eagle circles high
Its spirit, it is free
Since I grew up, he's followed close
Wherever I may be
I feel the wind across my face
And touch it with my hand
No matter what your bloodlines
We belong to this land
Yeah

You might be black, you could be white
But come and join the choir
This feeling in your belly means
You're welcome at this fire
So many generations
Between us we can trace
Flow away like a river
Down to our dreamin' place

Back on country
Back on country, yeah

Your country might be a family farm
North Queensland patch of dirt
Or Kings Street in Newtown
Where they tucked away the hurt
Patient stories, different worlds
Of love, hate, and fear
With a single dream, how many tribes
All come together here?

Back on country
Back on country, yeah

It's a living thing, a giving thing
Older than time
This land, it owes us nothing
It's not yours or mine
So when the weight of the world
Is crowdin' up your head
Come and lose yourself
Maybe find yourself

Back on country
Back on country, yeah

Yeah, back
Back on country, yeah
Find yourself on country
Back on country, yeah

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics BACK ON COUNTRY of TROY CASSAR-DALEY is also present in the album The world today (2021)
