[Verse 1]
C F
Big galvanised roofs and monster pipes black
G7 C
Pink and white clouds from a chimney stack
C F
Red dust and hawks in the wind out back
G7 C
And here I am at the Isa
[Link]
C F G7 C C F G7 C
[Verse 2]
C F
What do you do in a town like the Isa
G7 C
Retrenched at 50 become an old miser
C F
Drink yourself blind so you're none the wiser
G7 C
Sit at home with the race form and whinge
C F
Just over the hill in his own backyard
G7 C
The landscape becomes a picture postcard
C F
Where the colours are soft but the life is hard
G7 C
On the stations here at the Isa
[Link]
C F G7 C C F G7 C
[Verse 3]
C F
Tonight's the night of the rodeo ball
G C
Before riders and bull and horses stand tall
C F
While out in the park some black people sprawl
G C
And share their money on flagons
C F
There's so much more to be understood
G C
Before coming out here like Robin Hood
C F
The do-gooders do more harm than good
G C
Without really knowing the Isa
[Link]
C F G7 C C F G7 C
[Verse 4]
C F
Through the Leichhardt East Where fools gold flashes
G C
Fossick around for Maltese Crosses
C F
Flog them off to the tourist buses
G C
See ghost gums under the moon
C F
Some really battle some make do
G C
The luckier ones make a quid and pull through
C F
Some perch at the bar like a caged cockatoo
G C
But that's nothing new at the Isa
[Link]
C F G7 C C F G7 C
[Verse 5]
C F
And it takes a special kind of girl
G C
To stay out here in this rugged world
C F
Keep your dignity when the oathes are hurled
G C
I pay my respects to you
C F
And I'll raise my glass to an outback town
G C
To that weathered spirit that won't back down
C F
It takes the courage of a rodeo clown
G C
To stick it out at the Isa

Never thought I'd return to this lonely track
