[Verse 1]
Way out west where the rain don't fall
Got a job with a company drilling for oil
Just to make some bread
Living and working on the land
I quit my job and I left my wife
I headed out west for a brand new life
Just to get away
Living and working on the land
[Verse 2]
The work is hard but the pay is good
And I'd take me a rest if I only could
'Cause it's hot out here
Living and working on the land
They give you a house made of fibrocement
You don't need no money 'cause you don't have no rent
Yeah, it's oh so cheap
Living and working on the land
[Bridge]
What a change it's been
From working that nine to five
Oh, how strange it's been
At last I get the feeling that I'm really alive (ooh)
[Verse 3]
Nothing much to do on a Saturday night
But get into some booze or maybe a fight
'Cause it's tough out here
Living and working on the land
Way out west where the rain don't fall
Got a job with a company drilling for oil
And I ain't gonna leave
Living and working on the land
Ah na na na na na
[Verse 4]
La la, la la la, la la la
La la, la la la, la la la
La
Living and working on the land
La la, la la la, la la la
La la, la la la, la la la
La
Living and working on the land
