Last Frontier - Live
They're pushin' ever westward, across the great divide
Beyond the Darling River, towards the outback sky
The lawless and the brave, are searchin' for a dream
And all they found was sand and stone, where rivers once had been
They try to follow nomads, like ghosts in desert dreams
And suffered in a sunburnt land, down in the last frontier
And they sent them from the motherland
Into their greatest fear
To live and die for freedom's cry
And down in the last frontier
A drover rides in search of work, across the sweeping plains
A farmer kneels in a hungry church, as his children pray for rain
Back in a land across the sea, they found another war
They asked the Anzacs to believe, just what their fighting for
And they sent them from the mother land
Into their greatest fear
To live and die for freedom's cry
And down in the last frontier
Oh oh oh, the last frontier, yeah, yeah yeah
And people in the lucky land, who search for paradise
Are reachin' out for somethin' more, and don't believe their lies
The promises of hope and work, still ringing in their ear
The hungry and the homeless cry, down in the last frontier
And they sent them from the mother land
Into their greatest fear
To live and die for freedom's cry
And for the last frontier
The promises of hope and work, still ringing in their ear
The hungry and the homeless cried
Down in the last frontier
Oh-oh-oh, the last frontier
Yeah-yeah-yeah, the last frontier
Beyond the Darling River, towards the outback sky
The lawless and the brave, are searchin' for a dream
And all they found was sand and stone, where rivers once had been
They try to follow nomads, like ghosts in desert dreams
And suffered in a sunburnt land, down in the last frontier
And they sent them from the motherland
Into their greatest fear
To live and die for freedom's cry
And down in the last frontier
A drover rides in search of work, across the sweeping plains
A farmer kneels in a hungry church, as his children pray for rain
Back in a land across the sea, they found another war
They asked the Anzacs to believe, just what their fighting for
And they sent them from the mother land
Into their greatest fear
To live and die for freedom's cry
And down in the last frontier
Oh oh oh, the last frontier, yeah, yeah yeah
And people in the lucky land, who search for paradise
Are reachin' out for somethin' more, and don't believe their lies
The promises of hope and work, still ringing in their ear
The hungry and the homeless cry, down in the last frontier
And they sent them from the mother land
Into their greatest fear
To live and die for freedom's cry
And for the last frontier
The promises of hope and work, still ringing in their ear
The hungry and the homeless cried
Down in the last frontier
Oh-oh-oh, the last frontier
Yeah-yeah-yeah, the last frontier
