Down The Dusty Road To Home (1996 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty/Joy McKean
Oh come let us wander
Down the old bush track we'll go
Through the sandhills and the mulga
Where the old man saltbush grows
No more we plan to follow
The life of a rolling stone
So we'll hit the road out yonder
Down the dusty road to home
Around the campfire yarning
'Neath the twinkling stars above
We'll wend our way together
Back to the land we love
As we gaze into the distance
And feel we're not alone
This helps us face the hardships
Down the dusty road to home
We're finished with the town life
And the traffic's constant roar
So now we'll head out westward
And we'll settledown once more
Out along that old brown river
Where the 'roo and emu roam
And the tall gums bid us welcome
Down the dusty road to home
To see again those storm clouds
Gather from the western sky
And break across the desert
As it quickly passes by
A distant swirling dust haze
Where a mob of cattle roam
They beckon us to wander
Down the dusty road to home
Our hearts are in this country
Where droughts strikes hard and fast
Where the spirit of it's people
Always hangs on to the last
We see the heat wave rising
Out across the golden loam
No more we'll need to wander
Down the dusty road to home
So come let us wander
Down the old bush track we'll go
Through the sand hills and the mulga
Where the old man saltbush grows
No more we plan to follow
The life of a rolling stone
So we hit the road out yonder
Down the dusty road to home
