Wangkatjikitjana ngayunya
Wantikatinytja
Mungatuna tjina anu
Ngayunya wantikatingu
Alice springala
Kana tjina anungurakutu
If you go out as far as you can
You will find the desert man
Family bound and ancient
Born of the earth the dust his blanket
Tell you the story of the bird in the sky
Laid some eggs for as many stars to fly
It’s light years from Westfield camping on the track
Moving along in the great outback
You’re going to see him
You’re going to see him
Moving along in the great outback
Wati paluru, Wati putitja
Wati paluru, Wati putitja
Winking, spitting and sparkling lights
Cars are screaming at traffic lights
Sirens sound at suburban dawn
I can see a gnome on your front lawn
You’re going to see him
You’re going to see him
Moving along in the great outback
Moving along in the great outback
Moving along in the great outback
