Way Out West Lyrics - James Reyne

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 it's been 

From working that nine to five 

How strange it's been 

At last I get the feeling that I'm really alive 

They give you a house made of fibro cement 

You don't need no money 

'Cause you don't pay no rent 

And 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 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 la La la la 

Living and a`working on the land 

There's nothing much to do on a Saturday night 

But get into some booze 

Or maybe a fight 

'Cause it's tough out here 

Living and a`working on the land 

What a change it's been 

From working that nine to five 

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 a 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 

Living and a`working on the land
