Great granddad bought this farm in 1923
And I worked this land with my old man 
Which was then passed down to me 
Through years of drought we stuck it out
Worked as a family 
Well it's my home it's all I know
But is that how life should be 
So I hope and so I dream 
Cos I see
I just wanna to be a rockstar
Flying high over the country 
Away from living on the sunburnt plains
Just waiting for the rain to come
Yeah I just wanna be a rockstar and 
Wave my worries out the window
Take off and run 
I just wanna be a rockstar 
Well all my friends left this town 
And went out on their own 
Yeah the saw the world and I've been told
Every night is all night long
But I sit here and drink my beer 
And I write a country song 
And I close my eyes I'm in the spotlight
I hear the crowd applaud
So I hope and so I dream 
Cos I see
I just wanna to be a rockstar
Flying high over the country 
Away from living on the sunburnt plains
Just waiting for the rain to come
Yeah I just wanna be a rockstar and 
Wave my worries out the window
Take off and run 
I just wanna be a rockstar 
And my father says how much I'd miss this ground
But that's the thing I need to figure out
I just wanna to be a rockstar
Flying high over the country 
Away from living on the sunburnt plains
Just waiting for the rain to come
Yeah I just wanna be a rockstar and 
Wave my worries out the window
Take off and run 
I just wanna be a rockstar
