Lee Kernaghan The Way It Is Lyrics

The Way It Is Lyrics

its a plume of dust down an old dirt road
and hanging off the rails at the
rodeo
a back verandah with creaking boards
and the dark range of a
thunderstorm
its the stockmans bar at an old bush pub
and chasing
mickey's though the scrub
its planting seeds and praying for rain
and the
red dust runing through your veins

CHORUS:
its the way it is, its the
way it goes
when my wheels hit the gravel road it feels like home
its the
way of life, its the life i live
and im right where i want to be
thats the
way it is

its a corrugated iron shed
and work boots on a backdoor
step
scones in the oven and preserves in jars
talking prces at the
saleyards
its long straight roads and one horse towns
and sheep dogs
bringing the mob around
its she'll be right and having a go
its good on
ya mate and what do ya know?

REPEAT CHROUS

its the eerie still in
the grey of dawn
feilds of wheat and rows of corn
a rusty tank and flaking
paint
a weary digger on ANZAC day
its the dreamtime land and
uluru
aborigine didgeridoo
its batterd hats and calloused hands
the
spirit of a hard won land

REPEAT CHORUS
