Colin Buchanan - Adelago lyrics

co*katoos call in the morning Surf crashes on the golden sand It's 5 hours from the dust and the paddocks On the edge of the big brown land He's missing that farm under Sugarloaf Mountain There's sheep to feed, there's crops to grow He lies awake and in his mind drives the road to Adelago Chorus... He's ready to hear the crackle of gravel He's yearning for that homeward road He'll cross that bridge to the sandy ridge Out where the black pine grow And take that track straight back to Adelago His sons had never seen the ocean It's been a struggle just to get away He stares out to sea but the call of home Gets stronger every day Coz he can't help thinking 'bout the dams & silos He's ready just to pack the car And at journey's end to stand again at the gates to Waratah Chorus...
