Jimmy Barnes - Last Frontier Lyrics
Pushin ever westward, across the great divideBeyond the darling riverTowards the outback skyThe lawless and the brave, searching for a dreamWhen all they found was sand and stoneWhere rivers once had beenThey tried to follow nomads, like ghosts in desert dreamsAnd suffered in a sunburnt landDown in the last frontierCHORUS:And they sent them from the motherlandsInto the greatest fearTo live and die for freedoms cryDown in the last frontierA drover rides in search of work, across the sweeping plainsA farmer kneels in a hungry churchAs his children pray for rainBack in a land across the seaThey found another warThey asked the Anzacs to believeIn what their fighting forCHORUS:And they sent them to another landInto the greatest fearTo fight and die for freedoms cryAnd for the last frontierPeople in the luckly land, who searched for paradiseAre reaching out for something moreAnd they don't believe their liesThe promises of hope and work, still ringing in their earsThe hungry and the homeless cryDown in the last frontierCHORUS:And they sent them to another landInto the greatest fearTo live and die for freedoms cryAnd for the last frontierThe promises of hope and work, still ringing in their earsThe hungry and the homeless cryDown in the last frontierThe last frontierThe last frontier
