Numbulwar Time

A little place in western Arnhem Land by the Rose river and the mangroves stands nestled in the dunes and the tidal flows, Numbulwar country is where I know 

Chorus

On Numbulwar time (I’m on Numbulwar time)

I’ll spend my life time on Numbulwar time 

I see my friends in their fishing boats, barge to Darwin must unload

The road to Kathryn closed in the wet, soon the dry, no regret

Chorus/Music Break 

Chorus

On Numbulwar time (I’m on Numbulwar time)

I’ll spend my lifetime on Numbulwar time

I found the pace of the city; it didn’t really suit me at all

I never saw the sunsets; I never heard the bird’s call.

Ooh ooh

I hear the spirit calling me back to the sea and my family

I have to find my fishing line cause I’m going home to Numbulwar time

Chorus

On Numbulwar time (I’m on Numbulwar time)

I’ll spend my lifetime on Numbulwar time
