Lyrics Talk of the Town - John Farnham

The sun goes down on a cloudless sky
The tide is in, the water's high
The fisherman are back in town
Tonight they'll either drink or drown

Wait for rain to come down
Wait for rain all year round
It's the talk of the town
Goin' 'round

If you're ever in that Gulf country
Strangest land you'll ever see
The sun's so hot the ground's on fire
Thermometer won't go no higher

Wait for rain to come down
Wait for rain all year round
It's the talk of the town
It's goin' 'round

If you want to lose those lonely blues
You best put on your dancing shoes
The ringers make for the water hole
Tonight the town will rock 'n roll

Wait for rain to come down
Wait for rain all year round
It's the talk of the town
Goin' 'round
Oh, yeah

Murray knows this ancient land
Like the back of his own hand
See the brolga on the plain
Thousands dancing, bring the rain

And that rain coming down
Hear that rain what a mighty sound
It's the talk of the town
It's coming down

You see that rain coming down
Hear that rain what a mighty sound
It's the talk of the town
It's coming down
Oh coming down
Rain coming down
Oh yeah
