Drover

Lyrics

The real people went away
 But I'll find a better way, someday
 ♪
 Leaving only me and my dreams
 
 My cattle
 ♪
 And a resonator
 ♪
 I drove all the beasts down right under your nose
 The lumbering footloose power
 The bull and the rose
 
 Don't touch them
 Don't try to hurt them
 My cattle
 ♪
 I drove them by the crops and thought the crops were lost
 I consoled myself with rudimentary thoughts
 ♪
 And I set my watch against the city clock
 It was way off
 Yeah, one thing about this wild, wild country
 ♪
 It takes a strong, strong
 It breaks a strong, strong mind
 
 Yeah, one thing about this wild, wild country
 It takes a strong, strong
 It breaks a strong, strong mind
 And anything less, anything less
 Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time
 But the pain and frustration is not mine
 It belongs to the cattle
 Through the valley
 ♪
 And when my cattle turns on me
 I was knocked back flat
 I was knocked out cold for one clack of the train track
 Then I rose a colossal hand buried, buried in sand
 I rose like a drover
 For I am, in the end a drover
 A drover by trade
 And when my cattle turns on me
 I am a drover double fold
 ♪
 My cattle bears it all away for me and everyone
 ♪
 Yeah, one thing about this wild, wild country
 
 It takes a strong, strong
 It breaks a strong, strong mind
 
 And anything less, anything less
 Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time
