Heartbeat of The Land
Verse 1
Rural life
Ebbs and flows
Seasons change
Crops grow
Verse 2
Leathered faces
Face the sky
Years of hard work
Line the eyes
Chorus
Windmills turn
Heartbeat of the land
A rhythmic pulse
High on its stand
Verse 3
Scorching winds
Dust from the north
Parches the land
Reducing its worth
Verse 4
Crops wilt
Ground cracks
Money is out
Calls from banks
Chorus
Windmills turn
Heartbeat of the land
A rhythmic pulse
High on its stand
Verse 5
Dams are dry
Cattle are dying
Sheds are empty
No point in trying
​
Verse 6
Tractor is broken
Fences down
Bank owns everything
Even my scowl
Chorus
Windmills turn
Heartbeat of the land
A rhythmic pulse
High on its stand
Verse 7
News from the city
Everything is great
Countries never been better
Raging with hate
Chorus
Windmills turn
Heartbeat of the land
A rhythmic pulse
High on its stand
Verse 8 ( Spoken )
Grab the shotgun
Windmill stops
Air rings out
With a single shot
