Way out west and further out In the land of floods and drought Risin' up out of the ground, you can hear it Play that guitar make it ring Crank the volume, bend them strings Make it talk, make it sing, Dirt music
We're gonna get high, way out back On the beat and down the track The sound of guitars in the scrub, Dirt Music Play it loud, play it strong Rising dust, a desert song Feel the spirit comin' on, Dirt Music Everybody turning on, Dirt Music Everybody turning on, Dirt Music
Katy plays a Gibson flat top Found it in a second hand shop Tuned it up, dust it off she's out there Fire the Genny, crank the band Red rock on the river sand Reaching out across this land, you can hear it
We're gonna get high, way out back On the beat and down the track The sound of guitars in the scrub, Dirt Music Play it loud, play it strong Rising dust, a desert song Feel the spirit comin' on, Dirt Music Everybody turning on, Dirt Music Everybody turning on, Dirt Music
Take me down a red dirt backroad Down the track let me hear that banjo Oh take me down (Let me hear you now) Take me down a red dirt backroad Down the track let me hear that banjo Oh, take me down, take me down
We're gonna get high, way out back On the beat and down the track The sound of guitars in the scrub, Dirt Music Play it loud, play it strong Rising dust, a desert song Feel the spirit comin' on, Dirt Music Everybody turning on, Dirt Music Everybody turning on, Dirt Music.
