Lyrics

Early at dawn there?s rumbling sound all around
The smoke chokes the air like the fog in the coulee north of town


I sing of Rigel and Fireweed and Prespatou too
The places I sing of, we?ve been there me and you
In the sun and the rain when the long day is through
We?ll sit, have a pint and then maybe have two


Waiting to roll it up the traffic eleven tonne
The people work hard and they rise and they fall in the fields with the sun


I sing of Helmet and hi ho to Silver we go
The places I sing of, we?ve been there me and you
In the sun and the rain when the long day is through
We?ll sit, have a pint and then maybe have two



On the way home it was raining again and again
I saw Garry Beamish drive by and he waved and I thought how?ve you been


I sing of Wildmint and Tommy Lakes and Septimus too
The places I sing of, we?ve been there me and you
In the sun and the rain when the long day is through
We?ll sit, have a pint and then maybe have two
