Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I think I'll go on a walkabout
And find out what it's all about
And that ain't hard
Just me and my own two feet
In the heat I've got myself to meet
[Verse 2]
A detective of perspective
I need to try and get a bigger eye
Open wide
Blood wood flowers in my gaze
Walkabout in a sunny daze
To me now
On a walkabout
[Verse 3]
You could do it in the city
You could do it in a zone
You could do it in the desert
You could do the unknown on a walkabout
[Verse 4]
High desert skies are what I spy
So fly, you've got to wonder why
The stingrays must be fat this year
Movin' slow in my lowest gear
[Verse 5]
The digeridoo original, man with a dream
I believe the Aborogine
On a walkabout
[Verse 6]
You could do it with a shuffle
You could do it with a stroll
You could do it with a stride
You could do the unknown on a walkabout
[Verse 7]
A walk could cure almost all my blues
Bare feet or in my two shoes
One, two
[Verse 8]
I think I'll go on a walkabout
Find out what it's all about
Can't hurt to try
Use your legs to rock it wide
Take a ride to the other side
