Lyrics John Farnham

John Farnham

Talk Of The Town

The sun goes down on a cloudless sky

The tide is in the waters high

The fisherman are back in town

Tonight they'll either drink or drown

Wait for rain to come down

Wait for rain all year round

It's the talk of the town, goin' 'round

If you're ever in that Gulf country

Strangest land you've seen

Sun's so hot the ground's on fire

Thermometer won't go no higher

Wait for rain to come down

Wait for rain all year round

It's the talk of the town, goin' 'round

If you want to lose those lonely blues

You best put on your dancing shoes

The ringers make for the water hole

Tonight the town will rock 'n roll

Wait for rain to come down

Wait for rain all year round

It's the talk of the town, goin' 'round

Now, Murray knows this ancient land

Like the back of his own hand

See the brolga on the plain

Thousands dancing, bring the pain

And that rain coming down

Hear that rain what a mighty sound

It's the talk of the town, coming down

And that rain coming down

Hear that rain what a mighty sound

It's the talk of the town, coming down
