From where the river runs Through the fields of Deeley To where the mountains end As far as you can see This is where we belong Me and my family But is won’t be too long Till I leave the country
Down in the valley green I heard my mother cry For she was losing me The last one of her tribe
To see her in such pain I almost could not bear But the blood in my veins Is calling me out there
A la léo a la lé A la la léo Lé a la lé
From where the river runs Through the fields of Deeley To where the mountains end As far as you can see
This is where we belong Me and my family But is won’t be too long Till I leave the country A la léo a la lé A la la léo
