Testo Red Sand - Cold Chisel
Testo della canzone Red Sand (Cold Chisel), tratta dall'album The Complete Cold Chisel
Way out back of the Coolgardie
'Round the turn of the century
Two riders came out of the west
They were looking for the colour of gold
Trading on an old red blanket
Took 'em in a young boy
Passed him on to a pearl lugger
That was Java bound outta Roebuck Bay
The crew were mainly Manila men
And the young boy must have known
He'd never be back now
Down in the red sand
Manila-man got the machete
Manila-man cut him down cold
Die with the Balander boss on a lugger
Could not have been no
More than 12 years old
Looking out on a clear sky
As the sun beats down on her head
A mother alone
Fails to understand
As the long years go by
Just an old red blanket to dry
The tears for the son
Who'll never be home
Down in the red sand
Looking out on a clear sky
As the sun beats down on her head
A mother alone
Fails to understand
As the long years go by
Just an old red blanket to dry
The tears for the son
Who'll never be home
Down in the red sand, yeah
Way down in the red sand
Down in the red sand
Down in the red sand
In the red sand
Yeah
