Gonna leave this town
Gonna drive away

Did a tour from brisbane
Down to sydney
Stopped in forster along the way
Forster, new south wales

Met a man there who was dying
Met a man there who was trying
But we never asked why
No we never asked why

Yesterday is history,
Tomorrow's a mystery,
And today is a gift

We drank some scotch and dry
Smoked some hash to get high
But we never asked why
No we never asked why

He's gonna leave this town
He's gonna fly way
Oh yeah he’s gonna fly away

But I take his words with me
