Pushin ever westward, across the great divide
Beyond the darling river
Towards the outback
sky
The lawless and the brave, searching for a dream
When all they found was sand and
stone
Where rivers once had been
They tried to follow nomads, like ghosts in desert
dreams
And suffered in a sunburnt land
Down in the last frontier
CHORUS:
And
they sent them from the motherlands
Into the greatest fear
To live and die for freedoms
cry
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
In what
their fighting for
CHORUS:
And they sent them to another land
Into the greatest
fear
To fight and die for freedoms cry
And for the last frontier
People in the
luckly land, who searched for paradise
Are reaching out for something more
And they don't
believe their lies
The promises of hope and work, still ringing in their ears
The
hungry and the homeless cry
Down in the last frontier
CHORUS:
And they sent them to
another land
Into the greatest fear
To live and die for freedoms cry
And for the last
frontier
The promises of hope and work, still ringing in their ears
The hungry and the
homeless cry
Down in the last frontier
The last frontier
The last frontier
