Little Girl From The Dryland - John Williams[00:00:00]
Perfectly pretty[00:00:19]
Perfectly shy[00:00:22]
Little girl from the dryland[00:00:26]
Wondering why[00:00:29]
There's no trees on the south side[00:00:31]
To stop that howling wind[00:00:34]
Little girl from the dryland[00:00:37]
Only the creaky weatherboards[00:00:43]
Painted the milky green[00:00:45]
Keeping that scary world outside[00:00:48]
It's banging on the windows[00:00:54]
Blowing the washing off the line[00:00:57]
Calling out for that little girl on the dryland[00:01:00]
Two older brothers[00:01:15]
Your sister and you[00:01:18]
One little nipper[00:01:21]
Another one due[00:01:23]
Hiding under the homestead[00:01:26]
When strangers come along[00:01:29]
Father out on the wheatfield[00:01:33]
Only the creaky weatherboards[00:01:38]
Painted the milky green[00:01:41]
Keeping that scary world outside[00:01:44]
It's banging on the windows[00:01:50]
Blowing the washing off the line[00:01:52]
Calling out for that little girl on the dryland[00:01:56]
You hide the whisky[00:02:10]
But then what for[00:02:13]
Your father is awake to you[00:02:16]
But you are protector[00:02:22]
And your mother always knew[00:02:25]
You wondered why you were born[00:02:28]
Out on a wheatfield[00:02:30]
You know there is much more to life[00:02:33]
Than sky and endless plains[00:02:36]
Your father told you stories of the war[00:02:39]
Of Singapore and Paris[00:02:45]
And or how you long to go[00:02:47]
But you are young[00:02:51]
And stuck out on the dryland[00:02:52]
Only the creaky weatherboards[00:02:57]
Painted the milky green[00:03:00]
Keeping that scary world outside[00:03:03]
It's banging on the windows[00:03:09]
Blowing the washing off the line[00:03:11]
Calling out for that little girl on the dryland[00:03:15]
Calling out for that little girl on the dryland[00:03:24]
Calling out for that little girl on the dryland[00:03:32]
