My Friend The Chocolate Cake – How Green Was My Valley lyrics

Here comes the road train, kicking up dust,
it makes a thunderous sound,
for all the folks around
The red dust and salt lakes, they dance up a storm
there's five emus on the run beneath the mighty sun.

How green was my valley, not so any more

This road's a killer, for a thousand odd miles
but if the sleep don't get to you
then it's sure the no-doze will
There's three local white boys, rifles in hand
they go off hunting in the night, the roos don't put up a fight.

How green was my valley, not so any more

Well, down at the black pub, the windows are boards,
And if you stop to play some pool, the old man's staring back at you.

Then back to the white's pub, they're drinking a few,
Well the boys are there all night, they drink until they fight

How green was my valley, not so any more
that's why I'm taking this train...
