Talk of the Town

The sun goes down on a cloudless sky

The tide is in, the water's high

The fishermen are back in town

Tonight, they'll either drink or drown

Wait for rain to come down

Wait for rain all year 'round

It's the talk of the town goin' 'round

If you're ever in that Gulf country

Strangest land you'll ever see

Sun's so hot the ground's on fire

Thermometer won't go no higher

Wait for rain to come down

Wait for rain all year 'round

It's the talk of the town that's goin' 'round

If you wanna lose those lonely blues

You best put on your dancing shoes

The ringers make for the water hole

Tonight the town will rock and roll

Wait for rain to come down

Wait for rain all year 'round

It's the talk of the town goin' 'round, oh yeah

Murray knows this ancient land

Like the back of his own hand

See the brolga on the plain

Thousands dancing to bring the rain

And that rain coming down

Hear that rain, what a mighty sound

It's the talk of the town, coming down

You see that rain coming down

Hear that rain, what a mighty sound

(What a mighty sound)

It's the talk of the town, coming down

(Oh coming down)

Rain coming down

(Coming down)

Oh, yeah
