lyrics

ahh swallowing the western rail
wild biscuit grass now overgrows
through a sleepy postal town
mountains peaking over clouds
watching old men soak in sun
reminded of a different time
when they were searching for gold

they were searching searching for gold

ahh following the western rail
to where the leaves on fiery creek are gleaming
promising a new life beneath the sacred soil
troves of mud and dusty cloud
cover young men browned by sun
stories unalike unite
for a future of gold

they were searching searching for gold

ahh they built a road to bypass town
steel tanks are rusted and dry
and the old hotel closed down
mountains watching life go by
people come and they move on
a thread of gold lines the horizon
every night there to remind us to keep searching for gold

searching searching for gold
searching searching for gold
