Lyrics

[00:44.01] It's a drover's road
[00:48.50] High up where ravens fly
[00:52.39] And soon I'll lose my way
[00:55.65] And I won't know
[00:59.23] It's a drover's road
[01:03.78] From days so long gone by
[01:07.34] When we knew who we were
[01:10.72] And where to go
[01:14.67] It's a drover's road
[01:18.38] It winds a hundred miles
[01:22.05] You'd sleep out in the open
[01:25.86] Calm and still
[01:28.87] You could trust a friend
[01:33.16] To keep a watch awhile
[01:37.10] Your cattle grazing
[01:39.78] Quiet on the hill
[01:44.64] Walk with me
[01:48.07] And you can leave that old dog be
[01:53.91] He does much better on his own
[01:59.83] Leave him be
[02:03.79] He's a better man than me
[02:07.68] He likes to find his own way home
[02:43.85] On a drover's road
[02:48.11] With the moon and misty stars
[02:51.62] We walked these hills
[02:54.45] Before this all began
[02:58.76] Before we gazed at screens
[03:02.73] Went shopping in our cars
[03:06.43] And a million houses
[03:09.21] Sprawled across the land
[03:14.17] Walk with me
[03:17.73] And you can leave that old dog be
[03:23.65] He does much better on his own
[03:29.27] Leave him be
[03:33.58] He's a better man than me
[03:37.69] He likes to find his own way home
