A song about Australia and where you are at or where you are not at.
Story behind the song
This song started out as a gentle country and western song but somehow morphed into this rocker.
Lyrics
MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
Verse 1
In the middle of no where. Out the back of no mans land.
In among the bow bower trees. On this wide open plains.
Dirt and dust flyin’ everywhere. Stinkin’ hot it’s a summer day.
Hasn’t rained for a year or two. Dry dust bowl this big brown land.
Chorus
In the middle of nowhere In the middle of nowhere
In the middle of nowhere I’m In the middle of nowhere
Verse 2
In the middle of nowhere. Drivin’ into the coastal towns.
Large buildings just all a round. Eight lane highways that never ends.
Surf crashes on the silk white sand. Lots of people just hangin’ round.
Enough to drive a man insane. I tell where I’d rather be.
Middle Eight
I am just an average man. Just driftin’ driftin’ driftin’ round.
Tryin’ to find some solid ground. I guess I just wanta settle down.
I’m not sure where I’m at. Grab my stuff and don’t look back.
Keep my head held up high. Just follow my heart. And the deep blue sky.
Bridge
Where am I Where am I Where am I Where am I
