thirty six africa street in bushtown
number a name and a street
but old bushtown has tumbled down
and overgrown with concrete

i was born in old bushtown without a claim to fame
i don’t think that anyone could quite recall my name
i grew up with a mongrel pup and fishing hooks and line
winding tracks and treehouse shacks, and africa was mine

thirty six africa street in bushtown
number a name and a street
but old bushtown has tumbled down
and overgrown with concrete

i remember rainy nights
and drums across the sky
and i’d get lost in my kaross
so frightened i could cry
i remember the blazing days
a drought and once a flood
my first sight of a bar-room fight
of dead men and of blood

thirty six africa street in bushtown
number a name and a street
but old bushtown has tumbled down
and overgrown with concrete
first time that i left that place
was in a model a
we rolled down to another town
’bout thirty miles away
moonlight showed up a two-track road
the middle grass was high
i felt the stump ripping off the sump
and the radiator ran dry

thirty six africa street in bushtown
number a name and a street
but old bushtown has tumbled down
and overgrown with concrete

thirty six africa street in bushtown
number a name and a street
but old bushtown has tumbled down
and overgrown with concrete
