Mooloolaba

(Robert James)

Bend in the river, winding north
Mooloolah opens up her mouth
The black snake winds as the river always will
Life goes on when the water is still

Life goes on, life goes on when the work is all done

Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba
Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba
Life goes on, even when the waters are still

Left to the freeway, driving north
The glasshouse mountains legends bought
Surfboards in cars come as they always will
Even when the waters are still

Life goes on, love goes on when the work is all done

Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba, surfboards in cars
Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba, come as they always will
Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba, life goes on, even when the waters are still

The black snake winds as the river always will
Even when the water is still

Mooloolaba, Mooloolaba…
From the edge of the world I can hear the water breathing
Her unmade bed is where I'll be sleeping
Mooloolaba
Even when the waters are still
