The Crow Flying Backwards
Recorded by Chad Morgan
Written by Brian Brennan
G
Out where the bushman sings and those dingos howl
D7
You can see the strangest things and I'll tell ya now
C G
That the strangest thing you ever will see you won't believe your eye
D7 G
Is the black crow flying backwards to keep the dust out of his eyes
I have seen a kangaroo thirsty from the drought
D7
Hop into a country pub and buy the boys a shout
C G
He bought an extra dozen and put them in a pouch
D7 G
Then he gave a grin and left the pub hopping with a slouch
I've seen an old goanna play the didgeridoo
D7
He played Old Susana come back to the Old Barcoo
C G
Then all the other goannas from the grandson to granny
D7 G
Join their hands and did a dance called the old goanna hootenanny
I have seen a black wombat throw a boomerang
D7
At the nearest bank of clouds and make the thunder clang
C G
The lightning fell out on the ground the rain came tumbling down
D7 G
It was the greatest flood ever seen since Noah was around.
