Dusty Ground The Dreadnoughts

[Verse 1]
The dogs are moaning low, the moon is in the sky
The baby in his bed he gives a little cry
He knows the dirty secret we never pass around
We're all just water on the dusty ground
The sky’s a'burning crimson from fires in the west
The rich man's running for the isles of the blessed
As Jimmy fells the timber that never makes a sound
We're all just water on the dusty ground

[Chorus]
Tulloo! Tullay! The reaper's on the way!
He's sitting in the corner, he's coming out to play
Nobody gives a toss, so stand your final round
We're all just water on the dusty ground
We're all just water on the dusty ground

[Verse 2]
There's children blown to pieces by madmen in the sky
And warlords gathering with deserts in their eyes
And Jesus may be sacred, but the devil is profound
We're all just water on the dusty ground
When the day is over there's Jimmy at the bar
He's drowning sorrows in his meagre little jar
Recalls the little secret we never pass around
We're all just water on the dusty ground
