Goanna – Solid Rock lyrics
Out here nothin' changes, not in a hurry anyway
You feel the endlessness with the comin' of the light o' day
We're talkin' about a chosen place
You wouldn't sell it in a marketplace, well
Well just a minute now
Standing on solid rock
Standing on sacred ground
Living o-on borrowed soil
And the winds of change are blowin' down the line
Right down the line
Round about the dawn o' time, When dreamin' all began
A croud o' people came
Well they were looking for their promised land
Were running from the heart of darkness
Searching for the heart o' light
Well it was their paradise
But they were standin' on - solid rock
Standing o-on sacred grou-ound
Living o-on borrowed soil
And the winds of change were blowing cold that night
Oh
They were standin' on the shore one day, Saw the white sails in the sun
Wasn't long before they felt the sting, white man, white law, white gun
Don't tell me that it's justified, 'cause somewhere, someone lied
Yeah well someone lied, someone lied, genocide
Well someone lied, oh, ahh
And now you're standing on - solid rock
Standing o-on a sacred grou-ound
Living o-on borrowed soil
And the winds of change are blowin' down the li-ine
Solid rock, Standing on sacred ground
Living o-on borrowed soil
And the winds of change are blowing down the line
Solid rock, Standing o-on sacred grou-ound
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change are blowing down the line
Oh-oh-oh no, NO-O
Out here nothin? changes
Not in a hurry anyway
You feel the endlessness
With the comin? of the light of day
They're talkin? bout a chosen place
You wouldn't sell it in a market place
Well
Well just a minute now
You're standing on solid rock
Standing on sacred ground
Livin? on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowing down the line
Right down the line
Around about the dawn of time
The dreaming all began
The proud people came
Well they were looking for their promised land
Running from the heart of darkness
Searching for the heart of light
I think we've found paradise
Well they were standing on solid rock
Standing on sacred ground
Livin? on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Were blowing cold that night
Oh
Well they were standing on the shore one day
Saw the white sails in the sun
It wasn't long before they felt the sting
White man white law white gun
Don't tell that its justified
Coz somewhere someone lied
Yeah well someone lied
Someone lied
Someone lied
And now you're standing on solid rock
Standing on sacred ground
Livin? on borrowed soil
And the winds of change
Are blowing down the line
Solid rock
Standing on sacred ground
Livin? on borrowed soil
And the winds of change
Are blowing down the line
Solid rock
Standing on sacred ground
Livin? on borrowed soil
And the winds of change
Are blowing down the line
