I don't like gold and I don't like pearls
Im just your regular West Australian fishermans daughter
Im a middle class folk singing guitar playing girl

I aint seen the world no Ive not travelled far
Im saving dollars for a nineteen sixty two
Ruby red interior r series valiant mother f*cking of a car

Coz Im a country girl and im in a city world pulling up
Pulling all the man Im gonna let you through
Im living in the left hand lane of my city
Slow down so I can walk this highway with you
Slow down, let me walk it with you

Slow down
We all gotta slow down
Man I wanna walk that highway with you
Yeah i wanna be walking with you you you you you
Slow down
The whole world's gonna slow down
I wanna walk that high way with you, with you you you you with you

No not yet married I got no ring on my hand
I got my heart beating for this sweet loving
Second hand dealing boy
Im gonna luv him the best way I can I know I can

Coz Im a country girl in a city world pulling down
Pulling all the man Im gonna let you through
Im living in the left hand lane of my city
Slow down so I can walk this highway with you
Slow down let me walk it with you

I don't like gold and I don't like pearls
Im just your regular West Australian fishermans daughter
Im a middle class folk singing guitar playing girl
