Country living

[Verse] Got a shack in the country, where the red dirt tracks do run, Kangaroos taking shade from Australian sun, Fields of garlic, peas and broadbeans, growing neat and tall, Tractor putters through the rows,looking forward to the summer haul. [Verse 2] Cockatoos are calling, their feathers bright and bold, An echidna waddles in the grass, stories to be told, Yabbies in the creek bed, where the water is not so clear, Magpies sing at sunset, dusk and dawn, they gather near. [Chorus] Oh, country living's better, it's the life for me and you, With every sunrise blessing, and every sunset hue, City lights may sparkle, but they don't hold the charm, Of country life down under, where my heart finds its farm. [Verse 3] The field's a patchwork quilt, stitched with nature’s hand, Rows of green and golden stretch across this timeless land, Tractor's churning soil, turning dreams from dust to bloom, Lego and stories at the shack, in the evening’s gentle gloom. [Verse 4] Shades of green, blue of skies, a palette so divine, Cockatoos and magpies, in harmony they chime, Yabbies in the evening, under stars so bright and clear, Echidna's on a night stroll, whispers soft and near. [Bridge] No city noise to rattle, just the hum of life at peace, In the country, hearts are mended, worries find release, Tractor's song and nature's dance, in a rhythm so true, Country living’s better, it's the life for me and you.
