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
