lyrics

Home sweet home where we cut our teeth
stretched out our arms, bloodied out knees
I loved the rain rare and weak
and the salt bush ground beneath my feet

When I was a baby
and I grew amongst the gumtrees
they planted me down with the soil and seeds
and this country air I'll always breathe

Where the wind blows across the plains
and Uncle he carves our names
before wet cement we stand
in that old tool shed that weathered his hands

When I was a baby
and I grew amongst the gumtrees
they planted me down with the soil and seeds
and this dusty air my lungs will breathe

If I can't bare the weight of this city I call my own
may the wind of the river and my old home rest my soul
may my old home rest my soul

Built a fort of scrap and heap
those splintered crumbling spars we'd keep
stood them up around the gum
and their white ant eaten bones stood strong

When I was a baby
and I grew amongst the gumtrees
they planted me down with the soul and seeds
and this country air I'll always breathe

But ultimately it is the timeless song writing of old world and 20th century troubadours and Tennessee reared yodellers, that inspires much of her work. ... more
