lyrics

We've walked 80,000 years
This land 
All you see and hear
Mapped in stories told
Alive through songs of old
Now we battle broken ancestral lines
But that's fine
It's for the sake of the Adani Mine

We've worked generations long
This land
Families made strong
Year in and year out
Learned how to manage drought
Now less water flows through artesian lines
But that's fine
It's for the sake of the Adani Mine

We've scorned over centuries
This land
Far as you can see
Spanned logistically 
By road, rail, air and sea
Environmental risks at every line
But that's fine
It's for the sake of the Adani Mine
But that's fine
It's for the sake of the Adani Mine
