Lyrics The Walkabouts

The Walkabouts

Slow Red Dawn

We need a better idea, here quick

Before the sun's beatin' down on our necks

We need a better idea

Watch us speed, to the end of the world

Promise all, that we've already heard

And still we're nowhere

I don't care to know all the details

How you left him to shout down the stairs

I don't care to know

Slow Red Dawn is gonna come

Slow Red Dawn is comin' on

Slow Red Dawn

Do you see that thin strip of light there?

On the skyline, it seems unaware

That we haven't slept yet

But as long as we still laugh for keeps

And you swear you were dyin' to leave

There's no reason to sleep

Slow Red Dawn is gonna come

Slow Red Dawn is comin' on

Slow Red Dawn

Slow Red Dawn is gonna come

Slow Red Dawn is comin' on

Slow Red Dawn

Do ya see that light there?

On the skyline unaware

Do ya see that light there?

Comin' on

Are we gonna let it flag?

I think we got it in the bag

Do ya see the light there?

Comin' on
