2. I was in Alice for a day
But I didn't ever want to stay
Cos to me it's just become a tourist town
I'd rather head off way outback
Where the road becomes a track
And your car's the only thing to let you down
4. Can you drive me for a while
Because my eyes are getting tired
And the lights upon the hill make it hard to see
Just leave the window down
I know we'll never go back down south
Cos there's a thousand insect voices calling to me
