           I never found the Golden Mile___________

2.I worked the Snowy Mountain Scheme
  I cut the northern Queensland cane
  I farmed out on the western plain
  It's much the same
  I'm sleeping under stars tonight
  There's colours in the sky tonight
  A hundred voices come to mind
  Talk to me sometimes
