'Flame Trees' by Chisel. Whenever I hear it it takes me back to the glory days and reminds me how lucky I was to grow up in Deniliquin, and how awesome my mates were that I went through all that shit with. Fan-fucking-tastic.
Kids out driving Saturday afternoon pass me by
I'm just savouring familiar sights
We share some history, this town and I
And I can't stop that long forgotten feeling of her
Try to book a room to stay tonight
Number one is to find some friends to say "You're doing well
After all this time you boys look just the same"
Number two is the happy hour at one of two hotels
Settle in to play "Do you remember so and so?"
Number three is never say her name.
