Lyrics
Way out west where the rain don't fall
Got a job with the company drilling for oil
Just to make some change
Living and a-working on the land
I quit my job and I left my wife
Headed out west for a brand-new life
Just to get away
Living and a-working on the land
What a change, what a change it's been
From working that nine-to-five
How strange, oh, how strange it's been
At last, I get the feeling that I'm really alive
Give you a house made out of fibro cement
You don't need no money 'cause you don't pay no rent
Yeah, it's oh, so cheap
Living and a-working on the land
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Living and a-working on the land
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Living and a-working on the land
Nothing much to do on a Saturday night
But get into some booze, maybe a fight
'Cause it's tough out here
Living and a-working on the land
What a change, what a change it's been
From working that nine-to-five
Oh, how strange, how strange it's been
At last, I get the feeling that I'm really alive
Way out west where the rain don't fall
Got a job with the company drilling for oil
And I'm never gonna leave
Living and a-working on the land
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Living and a-working on the land
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Living and a-working on the land
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Living and a-working on the land
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Living and a-working on the land
