Way out west, where the rain don't fall
Got a job with the company digging for ore
Just to make some bread
Living and a working on the land
Quit my job and I left my wife
I headed out west for a brand new life
Just to get away
Living and a working on the land
What a change it's been
From working that nine to five
How strange it's been
At last I get the feeling that I'm really alive
Way out west, where the rain don't fall
Got a job with a company digging for ore
And I'm never gonna leave
Living and a working on the land
La la…
La la…
La la…
Living and a working on the land
La la…
La la…
Living and a working on the land

And this is how he became famous,
This is how he became the Pilbara Wanderer,
You see, mate, he went everywhere.
