Desert Man, Desert Woman lyrics

Wangkatjikitjana ngayunya Wantikatinytja (I want to talk about how I was left behind) Mungatuna tjina anu (A long time ago from where I walked) Ngayunya wantikatingu Alice springala (They left me in a place called Alice Springs) Kana tjina anu ngurakutu (From where I walked back home) 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 (That is the man, that is the desert man) Wati paluru, Wati putitja (That is the man, that is the desert man) 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
