Cattle and Cane

Robert Forster, Grant McLennan

[Verse 1]
Well I recall
A schoolboy walkin' home
Through fields of cane
To a house of tin and timber
And in the sky
A rain of fallin' cinders
From time to time the waste, memory wastes

[Verse 2]
And I recall
A boy in bigger pants
Like everyone
Just waitin' for a chance
His father's watch, mm
He left it in the shower
Time to time the waste, memory wastes
And the waste, memory wastes

[Chorus]
La la la
La la la la la
La la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la

[Verse 3]
I recall
A bigger brighter world
A world of books
Of silent times in thought
And then the railway
The railway takes him home
Through fields of cattle
And fields full of cane
Time to time the waste, memory wastes
And the waste, memory wastes

[Chorus]
La la la

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
I recall the same
A reply
A plan you once had
From time down to mind
The time was bad
So I knew where I was
Alone
So at home

[Chorus]
Ah
Mm
La la la

[Outro]
Mm
