Testo Desert Child

Sun goes down in the evening west
Now you can see nature's best
Red and gold in their full
Now you can feel the evening cool

Desert child lay down your head
And listen to what's being said
Stars are out in their majesty Out here everyone is free

Desert child lay down your head

And listen to your song
Desert child lay down your head
And listen to your song

Hear the crows, back they come
To spend the night in the river gum
Soon the owl will softly glide
Chilpa better run and hide

Close your eyes the fire is low
We're all here for you, you know Mum-Mum sings a lullaby
Baby don't you cry
