I look across this property

I see an arid and sun burnt land

I can tell that Mother Nature

Is working with an angered hand

Where is the rain, the thunder and lightning?

To make the grass and canopy green

All these things in my mind

Seeming like a distant dream

The cattle are lowing in paddocks

There’s no food and water’s scarce

The wind is blowing dust storms

The burning sun glows fierce

I love a sun blest country

But I know when enough is enough

How I long for some steady rain

To ease these times so tough
