Скачать или смотреть The Outback Way - Change is coming

"The Outback Way" - a country folk rock lament for Australia's last great desert track being sealed. From Laverton to Winton, the red dust roads are vanishing under bitumen, transforming a legendary 4WD challenge into just another highway. This song captures the bittersweet moment when wilderness gives way to progress, the black snake stretching across ancient ground. For travellers who knew the old way, for those who understand that some scars run deeper than the surface. The Outback Way is changing. Its wildness now excised.

Lyrics (c) Marc Glasby

The Outback Way is changing,
the dirt is being sealed,
The red dust roads are making way,
to bitumen they yield.

Where wheels once spun on thirsty ground,
the black snake stretches far.
A ribbon laid on ancient ground,
the land now wears a scar.

Oh dusty road you're vanishing,
They're making you so tame.
The challenge that you once possessed,
will never be the same.
From Laverton to Winton,
you'll soon be wild no more.
just another average road,
what are we driving for?

The window's slowly closing,
to see you as you were.
That rugged dusty bush track,
now just a black top blur.

They're smoothing out the story,
they're paving over dreams.
But the ghost of every boulder,
remembers old extremes.

The Outback Way is changing,
it's being civilised.
Its soul is rearranging,
Its wildness now excised.

Oh dusty road you're vanishing,
They're making you so tame.
The challenge that you once possessed,
will never be the same.
From Laverton to Winton,
you'll soon be wild no more.
just another average road,
no reason to explore.

They say it's all just progress,
a thing we can't ignore.
But I still hear the red dust call,
From the way you were before.
Oh dusty road you're vanishing,
They're making you so tame.
The challenge that you once possessed,
will never be the same.
The challenge that you were before,
will never be the same.
