Send me

 

Send me a photo, send me a note

Tell me what you see on your open road

Does it make you hopeful, does it cheer your mind

Do you think about us when you've got a little time ?

 

Send me a postcard, drop me a line

Everyone around here's asking if you're fine

How should I know, I keep my mouth shut

I'm running out of good stories to make up

 

Are you in Memphis, are you in Brisbane ?

If I don't hear from you, I'll google up your name

And I'll come knocking on your front door

And you will stay with me forever and more

 

Yeah, send me a photo

Yeah, drop me a line

Yeah, send me a photo

Yeah, drop me a line

Lucky numbers and superstition

 

Opened  my eyes in a new city

Light-hearted, a little bit dizzy

Little symphonies playing in the air

I took a few steps on a bright blue morning

And followed them horns and strings

Horns and strings ringing everywhere

 

There was a time when my steps were doubtless

Hoping for the best

There was a time when I relied upon

Lucky numbers and superstition

 

Sometimes it feels like you're walking in circles

Your hands are tied, and there's nothing you can do

The gypsy man told me "Let the fire inspire you"

So I jumped in the lava and it burned my chains

It went running into my veins

I was lifted up above my pains

 

 

There was a time when my steps were doubtless

Hoping for the best

There was a time when I relied upon  

Lucky numbers ...

 

Let the fire inspire you, let the fire inside you

 

Opened my eyes in a new city

Light-hearted, a little bit dizzy

My lungs ready to suck in this rotten air

Under my feet now the ground's like powder

I'm walking straight, a little bit faster

Until I get lost in a blinding glare

 

There was a time when my steps were doubtless

Hoping for the best

There was a time when I relied upon

Lucky numbers (superstition)

Lucky numbers (superstition)

Lucky numbers (superstition)

Building the country

 

I work in the sun

And I work in the rain

I've been working so long

I don't even feel the pain

I work in the mountain

And I work in the valley

I work where I'm needed

Trying to make a little money

 

Mama, if you could see me...

 

I work to buy my petrol

And I work to pay the bills

I've been working so hard

I know how it feels

I work next to my brother

He never says a word

Back home I had a girlfriend

Now I've got a job

Sweaty e.p live

Mama if you could see me

I'm building the country

Mama if you could see me

 

I work in the desert

And I work on the beach

You can call me a poor man

But my country is rich

So let the big train come

And bring a new generation

Me I'm going on my way

Cause I'm building a nation

 

Mama if you could see me

I'm building the country

Mama if you could see me

 

Daddy if you could see me

I'm building the country

Daddy if you could see me

 

Ooh  Ah
