Freight Train Heart lyrics

Pushin ever westward, across the great divide
Beyond the darling river
Towards the outback sky

The lawless and the brave, searching for a dream
When all they found was sand and stone
Where rivers once had been

They tried to follow nomads, like ghosts in desert dreams
And suffered in a sunburnt land
Down in the last frontier

CHORUS:
And they sent them from the motherlands
