Dirt Music

(album: Beautiful Noise - 2012)

Way out west and further out
In the land of floods and drought
Rising up out of the ground, you can hear it
Play that guitar make it ring
Crank the volume, bend them strings
Make it talk, make it sing, Dirt music

We're gonna get high, way out back
On the beat and down the track
The sound of guitars in the scrub, Dirt Music
Play it loud, play it strong
Rising dust, a desert song
Feel the spirit coming on, Dirt Music
Everybody turning on, Dirt Music
Everybody turning on, Dirt Music

Katy plays a Gibson flat top
Found it in a second hand shop
Tuned it up, dust it off she's out there
Fire the genny, crank the band
Red rock on the river sand
Reaching out across this land, you can hear it

We're gonna get high, way out back
On the beat and down the track
The sound of guitars in the scrub, Dirt Music
Play it loud, play it strong
Rising dust, a desert song
Feel the spirit coming on, Dirt Music
Everybody turning on, Dirt Music
Everybody turning on, Dirt Music

Take me down a red dirt backroad
Down the track let me hear that banjo
Oh take me down
(Let me hear you now)
Take me down a red dirt backroad
Down the track let me hear that banjo
Oh, take me down, take me down

We're gonna get high, way out back
On the beat and down the track
The sound of guitars in the scrub, Dirt Music
Play it loud, play it strong
Rising dust, a desert song
Feel the spirit coming on, Dirt Music
Everybody turning on, Dirt Music
Everybody turning on, Dirt Music
