Colin Buchanan
The New Bush
[Verse 1]
The dawn is breaking, out on a back track, the sun is cutting through like a knife
He knows the mornin', the smell of the diesel, another day in a young man's life
And he wears the dust, he's one of us

[Chorus]
The New Bush is here, a turn of the page, there's talk around the town, for better days
You can see it in their eyes, real as the Sun, a quiet revolution's begun, in the new bush

[Verse 2]
Her hands are wailing, and she's on a mission, handed down from father to son
She knows the country, respects the old ways, she'll kick it in and get the job done
In these changin' times, she holds the line

[Chorus]
The New Bush is here, a turn of the page, there's talk around the town, for better days
You can see it in their eyes, real as the Sun, a quiet revolution's begun, in the new bush

[Interlude]
The sun still burns, and the land still aches, the mob still turns, and a new day breaks

[Chorus]
The new bush is here, a turn of the page, there's talk around the town, for better days
You can see it in their eyes, real as the sun, a quiet revolution's begun, the new bush

Yeah, the new bush is here, a turn in the page, there's talk around the town, for better days
You can feel it in your bones, real as a song, a quiet revolution's begun
In the new bush
[Outro]
In the new bush
