Listen now to the wind babe Listen now to the rain Feel that water lickin’ at my feet again I don’t wanna see this town no more Wastin’ my days on a factory floor First thing you know I’ll be back in Bow River again
Anytime you want babe, you can come around But only six days separates me and the great top end I been working hard, tweleve hours a day And the money I saved won’t buy my youth again Goin’ for the heat babe, and a tropical rain In a place where no man’s puttin’ on the dog for me Waitin’ on the weekend, set o’ brand new tyres And back in Bow River’s just where I want to be
Listen now to the wind babe Listen now to the rain Feel that water lickin’ at my feet again I don’t wanna see this town no more Too many years made up my mind to go or stay Right to my dying day I don’t wanna see another engine line Too many years and I owe my mind First set o’ wheels headin’ back Bow River again First thing you know I’ll be back in Bow River again
Got the motor runnin’, got the rest of my days Sold everything I owned for a song So anytime you want babe, you can come around But don’t leave it too late you just might find me gone
Listen now to the wind babe . . .
I don’t need the score I’m goin’ through the door Gonna tell the man I don’t want no more Pick up a fast car and burn my name in the road One week two week maybe even more Piss all my money up against the damn wall First thing you know I’ll be back in Bow River again
