"Little River Runs" lyrics

Tiptoe Giants & Josh Pyke Lyrics

"Little River Runs"

Little River runs to the sea
Flowing free, what a sight to see
Little River runs
Through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea

Along Little River there's a bank of sand
Where water meets land, what it's like to see
A bank of sand
Where Little River runs
Through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea

By the bank of sand grow red gum trees
Blowing in the breeze, what a sight to see
Red gum trees
By the bank of sand
Where Little River runs
Through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea

In the red gum tree there's a little nest
For birds to rest, what a sight to see
The little nest
In the red gum tree
By the bank of sand
Where Little River runs
Through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea

In the little nest is a lorikeet
Who sings so sweet, what a sight to see
Lorikeet sings
In the little nest
In the red gum tree
By the bank of sand
Where Little River runs
Through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea

Our lorikeet song takes to the sky
Yes a song can fly, what a sight to see
A song in the sky
That a lorikeet sings
In the little nest
In the red gum tree
By the bank of sand
Where Little River runs
Through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea

And from that sky raindrops flow
To the valley below, what a sight to see
Raindrops flow
From a song in the sky
That a lorikeet sings
In the little nest
In the red gum tree
By the bank of sand
Where Little River runs
Through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea

In the valley below, Little River runs
It murmurs and hums, what a sight to see
Oh and Little River runs
When the raindrops flow
From a song in the sky
That a lorikeet sings
In the little nest
In the red gum tree
By the bank of sand
Where Little River runs
Oh Little River runs through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing, flowing
Flowing, flowing, flowing
Flowing, flowing, flowing to the sea
