lyrics

Shining in the moonlight,
Snaking around the rocky range
Into the desert sunrise,
the window is my frame
I’m riding up the centre line
I've got to feel that desert one more time
I’m riding on the desert train

This train has got a rhythm, gonna hypnotise my brain
Slap that beat on your rhythm guitar and sing that song,
sing that song again
The miles keep rolling by
When you‘re riding on that desert train

Get on board, get on board the Ghan,
when you get on board - you can’t get off again
You and me making love all night in the sleeping car
across the empty plain
Clickety clack on the rickety track, mile after mile
till the sun came up again

Albert Namitjira upon the school house wall
Taught me how to see this place,
where one man seems so small
the miles keep rolling by,
when you're riding on the desert train

I'm riding on the desert
I'm gonna feel that space again
I'm going where it rarely rains
on the desert train
