There's a wind on the eastern side
  Ghost Gums dance in the moonlight night
  Mopoke mourns the racketeers
  
  The bosses they can sense you mind
  All in place to a hand that rules
  They all want to deal you out
  
  I can see the outside world
  Everything's inviting in the outside world
  Leaving all my problems in the outside world
  Leaving all my problems in the outside world
  
  It's the summer of another year
  A little world weary a little more to fear
  Hold those cards tight to your chest
  
  Maybe some day you could be a man
  Living quietly in a caravan
  Not the Lismore Road tonight
