Our Anthem for rock, never ever fails to get all singing along to it as it means so very much to us. A gift that when it was written no-one could have known the impact it will have forever on Aussies. It is a gem that shines at almost every backyard BBQ.. Pub Night... Karaoke night and on every Classic Rock radio station at least once a day. Thanks Greg and I am looking forward to your pics as well mate. Keep Safe Keep Strong 🦘🦘🦘🦘❤❤❤❤🎶🎶🎵🎵🎶🎶
Jimmy and Chisel knows how much this song means to us. How could we not sing that back to them? Here are the lyrics - Kids out driving saturday afternoon just pass me by And I'm just savoring 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 and 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 Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver And there's nothing else could set fire to this town There's no change, there's no pace Everything within its place Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around But oh who needs that sentimental bullshit, anyway Takes more than just a memory to make me cry And I'm happy just to sit here a table with old friends And see which one of us can tell the biggest lies And there's a girl falling in love near where the pianola stands With a young local factory auto worker just holding hands And I'm wondering if he'll go or if he'll stay Do you remember, nothing stopped us on the field In our day Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver And there's nothing else could set fire to this town There's no change, there's no pace Everything within its place Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver And there's nothing else could set fire to this town There's no change, there's no pace Everything within its place Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around
The videos from Armidale NSW two days ago are even better because Jimmy wasn't competing with a packed room of fans singing louder than him.....lol AT least at Armidale the 10,000 people who were ALL singing were in the foreground and seemingly on the stage with them
Ha ha. Yeah, the crap singing of audience is prevalent on this one. Greg tugging at our hearts strings mentioning he wishes Steve was there. I'm so glad I did catch Cold Chisel once, before Sreve passed away.

Kids out driving saturday afternoon just pass me by
And I'm just savoring 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 and 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
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace Everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around
But oh who needs that sentimental bullshit, anyway
Takes more than just a memory to make me cry
And I'm happy just to sit here a table with old friends
And see which one of us can tell the biggest lies
And there's a girl falling in love near where the pianola stands
With a young local factory auto worker just holding hands
And I'm wondering if he'll go or if he'll stay
Do you remember, nothing stopped us on the field
In our day
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace
Everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace
Everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around
BESTEST Aussie band ever...............
