At Lightning Ridge - John Williams[00:00:00]
Don't ask any questions[00:00:06]
Don't snoop around his claim[00:00:08]
He'll be out with a dog and a shotgun[00:00:11]
Who knows what he's hiding[00:00:16]
Or why he makes his stand[00:00:19]
Men like him are buried alive[00:00:21]
With Opals in their hands[00:00:23]
Well they say he came from Lismore[00:00:25]
That's about all we know[00:00:29]
He came for a weekend only[00:00:31]
Twenty years ago[00:00:34]
Well he must have had money in the bank[00:00:36]
Or he's found a lot more than potch[00:00:39]
For every month he sends a cab[00:00:41]
For another case of scotch[00:00:44]
He's a dreamer he's a drinker[00:00:46]
A Bull Ant in a hole[00:00:49]
He's a schemer[00:00:51]
He's a thinker[00:00:52]
He's a lonely soul[00:00:54]
He's gouging for the Opal[00:00:56]
Like a Wombat or a Mole[00:00:58]
Way out there at Lightning Ridge[00:01:01]
Down below the Leopardwood[00:01:27]
Below the Biblebox[00:01:29]
Get your thrill on lunatic hill[00:01:32]
Flashes of dancing colour[00:01:37]
Green and gold and red[00:01:39]
Mix it with black and you're on your back[00:01:42]
Digging until you're dead[00:01:44]
Well it's not about a fancy car[00:01:46]
It's not about the cash[00:01:49]
They passed the hat for a swimming pool[00:01:52]
And built it in a flash[00:01:54]
No it's all about the Opal[00:01:56]
You get it in your eye[00:01:59]
You see a glimpse of heaven[00:02:02]
With angels in the sky[00:02:04]
You're a dreamer you're a drinker[00:02:07]
A Bull Ant in a hole[00:02:10]
You're a schemer[00:02:12]
You're a thinker[00:02:13]
You're a lonely soul[00:02:15]
You're gouging for the Opal[00:02:17]
Like a Wombat or a Mole[00:02:19]
Way out there at Lightning Ridge[00:02:22]
He's a dreamer he's a drinker[00:02:27]
A Bull Ant in a hole[00:02:30]
He's a schemer[00:02:32]
He's a thinker[00:02:33]
He's a lonely soul[00:02:34]
He's gouging for the Opal[00:02:37]
Like a Wombat or a Mole[00:02:39]
Way out there at Lightning Ridge[00:02:42]
Way out there at Lightning Ridge[00:03:02]
