November's here it's the time of the year when the heat waves are starting to dance.
Mercury rising, millibars falling, no time for a shaky romance
Sweat on the foreheads of babies, drifting in dreamland
While into the pindan* those old men are pounding a raindance
Ngaba**, ngaba
Anticipation, gunada waving goodbye to hot hungry days
Pressure down in King Sound, drifting across Roebuck Bay
See the lightning bolt, hear the thunder roll, she's a coming
While into the pindan those children are dancing a raindance
Drums Kick in
Ngaba, ngaba
N-ga-ba, n-ga-ba
Willy willy, going silly only the rainman can see
That eastern horizon bringing that ngaba to me
N-ga-ba, n-ga-ba
Saturation, gunada waving goodbye to hot hungry days
Old dogs and children dancing those heat blues away
N-ga-ba, n-ga-ba
N-ga-ba, n-ga-ba
RAINDANCING, RAINDANCING
RAINDANCING, RAINDANCING
Notes:
* Pindan means semi-arid country, scrubland.
** Ngaba means water
