Peter Garrett - Kangaroo Tail lyrics

The kangaroo tail glints in the sun And the freckle boys paddle out at Curly Mascot smells sweeter than eucalypt gum I'm coming home to blue hills in the morning Lt's a journey that lasted as long as my youth I never was one to quit early But the miles and white lines are a sign of the times I'm coming home to blue hills in the morning So many places I wanted to know Ended up dreaming of you So many places I happened to see Ended up thinking of you and me I wish all my friends could see with my eyes What I can't tell them just by talking Ma**es of red roofs in early sunlight Out of the gullies red wings are afire L'Ve seen wars and dark places. gla** castles of kings Jewels and junkyards the craziest things The satellite salesman's glittering nose ring Coming home to blue hills in the morning Yes I dreamed of the sandstone cliffs Washed by the dawn Longed for the white cradle That guards the lagoon In the arms of my true love I'm coming home soon Coming home to bwe hills in the morning It's a journey that's lasted as long as my youth The satellite salesman has hung up his noose The light on the hill picks me up its the truth I'm coming home to blue hills in the morning
