Rocks, bushes, dirt on an old dusty lake
Squishy green grass after it has rained at the night time
Crispy dry leaves go crunch as the horses go by
Emu feathers and eggs flying everywhere now
Shooters getting eggs for supper for family
Roses being picked for street weddings in the town
Boulder rocks stumbling down the hills to the town
Bark if the old trees falling to the cracked pavement
Sandy desert dry from hot weather in the summer
Born in a tent with the wild bush land creatures
