Welcome All To BroomeWell I grabbed my camera, grabbed my zoomLeft my guitar in the hotel room A few days here, I must presume To know enough about life in Broome Well I met this dark-eyed local girl Has no time for mother o' pearl The golf course and palm trees The local girl likes none of these She likes red sand and blue seas Bush tucker in the trees Give me wet season if you please Sandpiper, gentle breeze Well I talked to a man who has big dreams Of multi-million dollar schemes Of tourists pouring in in teems Broome is not just what it seems The holy dollar plays the tune Original people movin' soon All gone out to desert moon Far away, away From the red sand and blue seas Bush tucker in the trees Give me wet season if you please Sandpiper, gentle breeze Gotta make this place respectable Build a monster shopping mall Paint a dragon on the wall Bring your money, one and all Do we welcome all to Broome Do we welcome all to Broome Welcome all to Broome Welcome all to Broome (Red sand and blue seas) (Bush tucker in the trees) (Give me wet season if you please) (Sandpiper, gentle breeze) |
