Murray River Lyrics

The big old Murray river is where we went To forget about our troubles and the worries of the world

Put that punt out on the water

Take her for a ride

Gonna catch us a big fish to eat tonight

Floating on that water gave you time to think

Of this big old world and what could have been

And we'd be making jokes and having fun Hanging shit on every one

We were kings in our little world

And that big old Murray River is an ancient friend

And she will never let you down she's always there

Winding through this land like a big brown snake

Flowing out to sea day after day

Down through that powder dirt road our wheels would roll

Through the river gums and down to the bank to unload

Cooking yellow bellies in the fire

Singing songs right through the night

The brightest stars in our little universe
