Last Of The Diggers

Intro:    x2 Who will march for peace   Now that the last of the diggers has gone   All those who were released   From Suvla Bay and from the Somme   The Mallee’s whipped by sand   A great new silence blankets the land   We sure need the Stone Age   In the coming century   Same for this verse.... Who will feed the poor   Now that the saint of the gutters is gone   Who will hear the call   You lately come or native born   For the touch of the master’s hand   The eye of the master still watches the lamb   We sure need the Stone Age   In the coming century   The last of the diggers   The last of the diggers   The last of the diggers   The last of the diggers has won   Who gets sent to war   Who’ll lose a child to a foreign coast   Who will leave our shore   And come home rattling like a ghost   This country can be cruel   It’ll leave you with scars that never heal   We sure need the Stone Age in the coming century   Still gonna need some Stone Age in the coming century
